New wheels, tires and more lift

Hey guys, its been a good year of ownership with the truck.

I started off with billies set at 1.75" front and 1" blocks in the rear right after my purchase.

Soon I got the itch for wheels and tires, after selling my stockers for good money on ebay I splurged for some level 8 wheels and hankook dynapro atm

Heres the scoop.

-Im now running the bilstein 5100 at 1.75 with 1/4 top spacer on each side for a total front lift of about 2.25
-rear blocks are off and im running the 1.5" AAL from toytec
-Wheels are 17x8 level 8 MK6 with 0 offset
-Tires are hankook dynapro atm 265/70/17 (not rub at all and no trimming - mudflaps are even untouched)

Looks great. Makes me wish I'd bought a super white. Dark colored vehicles are a PITA to detail. Lately i've been considering going the exact same route. I have the 5100s now set at 1.75 with stock rear end, and i'm about to pull the trigger on the top plate spacer and aals for a bit more clearance because i'm rubbing like crazy with these duratracs and wheel BS when my front compresses. Just curious, how much did you get for your stockers? I just gave the ones from my 07 away, and i've already committed to give the tires from my 2013 to my mom since hers are at the end. They've been sitting in the shed since I bought it home from the dealership.

 

I wanted to go for the 2.5 , but with the top plate and 1.75 my ride still feels nice and maybe my alignment will be ok . I haven't gone back in since adding the spacers but the truck feels fine .

For the wheels tires tpms sensors and lug nuts I got a net or about 1050 after shipping and eBay fees I got 1050, but my rims were pretty much new take offs . Only about 2500 miles on them

 

You should max those Billies out, the rake is very noticeable.

Is there a 2.25" setting on them, between the 1.75" and 2.5" ?

Atleast try it to see if the ride-quality decreases...

I'm actually curious myself, I want the same set-up...

 

There is no 2.25 setting , it's set at 1.75 with a 1/4" top plate spacer which equals about 1/2" of lift .

I like the slight rake , to me this is how a truck is supposed to sit . I know some like the level look , but to me it looks like the rear is always squating .
