Hey i was wondering if you coukd use those billstein shocks which gives adjustable extra height along with a leveling kit to lift the truck a bit more for tire clearance. Currently have 3" on the front and 1" on the rear if that changes anything. I don't really wanna throw out a load much money into a new suspension lift so if it comes down to it ill go with a 3" body lift. Just wondering if these shocks will give me what im lookin for. Currently running 34's on the setup and still have a small amount of rubbing. Would like to take care of the rubbing and be able to run 35x12.5x17 while using a truck for what its meant lol. Anyone running 35's with a leveling kit must not leave the asphalt

Thanks for any input.

No you can't use Bilstein leveling shock's with a leveling kit unless use put them at the zero setting. Your best bet to run 35's is to find a wheel that's 8 inches wide with 5 1/2 inches of backspacing. This will stick out only 1/2 inch more then stock. I ran 35's for a few year's with no rubbing on these size wheels, even did some light offroading with no rubbing. The only drawback is these size wheels are hard to find and do not give the stance a lot of people are looking for. They keep the tire and wheel assy. tucked inside the wheelwell.

These are the wheel's and tires I am talking about.

Ok thanks. I realize now that it was a dumb question lol. I already have a set of rim that im currently using they are 17x9 and have 4.75" backspacing and dont really wanna have to buy new rims. Im gettin by ok with what i have now its only rare that it does rub. I guess ill end up goin with the body lift once i put away enough bones.
