Got My Lift: 2in OME + Method Double Standards + KO2s

Did you notice any MPG loss?

 

Yes, I’m averaging 17/18 right now in the city (I live in Nashville TN). There’s no way around having a dip in MPG if you lift and throw on beefier tires. At least no way around it that I know of or am comfortable with.

 

So true! No way around it. Your truck looks clean and well balanced.

 

thats not too bad, what were you hitting before?

 

Probably 19ish

 

Which ome kit is this? Can you send a link?

That's the same one I'm wanting but just wondering how it works with tss

 

I worried about that too. The dealer told me it would be a mess to lift it because of that and that they’d have to do it. However, I haven’t had even a hint of an issue. Everything works just like it did before the lift.

 

Ah I couldn't tell if you and an 18 or not. Cheers! How is it for stiffness? My stock off-road could be a touch stiffer

 

@TheDonutAllStar What are the spec's on your 17" Method Double Standards? I'm curious about width, off-set and backspacing.

 

I've loved it. I didn't know what to expect, but initial thoughts were that it felt like stock. At times I've felt like the front is softer than the rear, but I can't quite be sure. I need to spend more time with it. I definitely do not feel any sense of disappointment at all.

 

so with these few months with this lift you still enjoying it? im about to pull the trigger on the kit. Did you go with the firmer or softer shocks?

 

Yep I am very pleased with it. It did settle a good bit, and the body shop installed a 1/4 in spacer to pick it up out of the settling (it was rubbing a bit). The stance is great. It looks more aggressive, but not overly so. The truck is capable of everything I've thrown at it, and the suspension rides comfortably. You'll notice some squeaking, but I think it's endearing

 

great that was my next questions. if it was rubbing. what are your wheel specs? Offset, width and diameter

 

Method Double Standards: 17x8.5
K02s 285x70x17

 

So after the 1/4 spacer does it still rub? Looks clean
