    interesting. Do you know the backspacing on those wheels? Mine have a 4.5 and I am wondering if I will be able to fit 285/70/17s with 5100s and 885 coils set at 0 with the 1.5 AAL (I have TSB) and LR UCAs I have searched high and low trying to find if this will work with no cab mount chop.

    5100's all around. Front's set at 1.75" 265/75/16 Duratracs.

    TSB leafs. With the TSB leafs my truck was 2 inches lower in the front factory. So when I added the 5100's at 1.75" it leveled it out nicely. If someone has the 3 leaf setup I would say go with .85 for the 5100's.

    Yea, I like that look a lot. I'm going to install the billies at 1.75 but I have a non-TSB leaf pack. I'm on the hunt for a TSB leaf pack because I'm past the warranty for a new set. Just got to be patient enough for one to pop up.

    They have 15mm offset. I have 0 rubbing issues up front, even with my pretty heavy 4 wheeling, but I am also set at .85 with the 885's. Depends on the 4 wheeling you do. Without the wheel spacers, I'd be rubbing.
