Default Lift question

I'm looking for a 2-4 inch suspension lift but can't seem to find any. I don't want to go to 6 or drop 1500-2000 in a six. I'm only going to run 33" tires so a six would look silly I feel. Does anybody know of any? Thanks

Don't think they make a 3 inch suspension lift for our trucks, maybe a body lift or leveling kit I'm running 33s right now stock

IMO I would rather run a little wider tires than tall. I like when you can see there is lift but the tires still fit the bill without looking small. Don't really like when it looks like the tires were squeezed in there.

I only got the 35s because I needed tires and found the set at 70% tread for $400 for all 4 or I was just going to go with 33s

Ok I can see where you are coming from, that's a pretty good deal for 35s, what kind did you get?
