    Highest possible :)

    33s requires 3''+ lift + trimming inner fender.

    All Terrain T/A KO... Duratracs...

    Depends on your budget! I went with duratracs because they're winter approved and I needed it where I live. Otherwise I would have bought BFGs All Terrains.

    Setting depends on what springs you have, please elaborate more :)

    You don't need a lift to fit 33's. And a 3" lift won't even help fit 33's, the suspension still cycles in the same geometry. Unless of course you don't plan on ever going offroad... well then you might be fine with a 3" lift.

    Most likely... I don't know all my 2nd gen facts... But you will need some slight inner fender trimming (just some bs plastic). Otherwise you will probably scrub when turning and hitting curbs or bumps on the road. And set the bilsteins at the 2.5" which is max I believe.
