    Go to @HeadStrong Off-Road regardless of what you get.
    4 in the front & 4 in the rear will not make you level, more than likely you'll maintain the rake you have now.

    I did AAL's for.... I think 10 months before my stock leafs gave up the ghost and went into negative arch. The AAL's still added their 1.5" but the stock leafs sagged it back to nothing lol. Wish I never wasted my time.

    As much as @ChadsPride loves his Dakars, I love my AllPro leafs. I got the standard leafs good for an honest 3" of lift at a higher spring rate so the truck doesn't sag as much under load. You really cannot go wrong with either, unless you go crazy listening to squeeks :infantry: *cough* Dakar *cough*

    Truth here. If you're doing the same amount front/rear then the rake won't change, it'll just be higher in the air with the same "lean". I think 4" spindles up front and an aftermarket +/- 3" leaf pack would be even better, just about an inch of rake would probably look level to most naked eyes. @Southern_Taco9 all of us are plenty willing to spend your money for you :evil:

    I think a 4/2 kit is level but like you said to the eye it looks ass low. Mine is 7/6 & looks level to me.

    Looks good! Love the Ray 10's.
    I want to get rid of these Fuels & get a set in bronze myself.

    Seriously in love with these wheels, you won't be disappointed! The reason I went with the matte silver is because it was an impulse buy and the only color/size in stock. (I couldn't wait the estimated 6 months for the new batch;))

    I'm still in the process of saving up. Hard to convince the wife to spend money on another set of wheels just to change them. Haha
    I saw a pic of another spruce mica with bronze sr8's & the color combo looks so good.

    285/75r16 BFG K02's, perfect size for the amount of lift currently on the truck. Still need to take care of the cab mount and pinch weld for when I hit dips near full lock tho
