leveling kit question

skyjacker, readylift, truxx, pro comp, fabtech, all make metal ones. they were averagin 200 a set but the daystars like you have were 175. so im thinkin you can find a better deal somewhere
Alright so I'm hopefully going to be putting the level on this weekend. 1.5 inch daystar. Currently I am running 255 size tires and they rub a little bit when I have the wheel turned all the way to the left. Should this get rid of the rub ya think? And also what size could I upgrade to a little later just to have a bit of a bigger tire? Daystars website said 31.7 and when I googles it it was like a 285? I could be wrong though I just don't see that big of a tire fitting comfortably in the wheel well. Thanks again
which tire rubs? left or right? and is it the leading edge of the tire rubbing the bumper valence, or is it the trailing edge rubbing the rocker/wheel well. in rare cases they may rub the frame or suspension but thats with bigger tires and in your case it would be doing it to both sides so its not that

Rubber spacers compress,aluminum ones crack and usually aren't full circles. Go with lift coils and be done with it. I've put rubber spacers on two trucks and they both compressed from level to 1/2-3/4"s tail high again after a few thousand miles.
a 285/75/16 is a 33x11.5 roughly and fits great with 1.5-2"s of lift.
Holla- what wheels are you using? what are the exact size of ur tires(255/?/16)? I had 255/70/16's on a stock 2wd truck with aftermarket wheels with less backspacing than stock and they cleared fine all around.
