    Alright so my stock coilovers are shot so I want to replace them with adjustables so set to an inch inch and a half to level out with my inch and a half higher leaf Springs. I'm just wondering what size tires and wheels I could fit and am not sure what backspacing and such will work with my truck. Kinda hard to understand other posts because I really don't know what I'm looking at

    Call Marie @HeadStrong Off-Road

    Tell her your cosmetic goals, your primary usage of the truck (like 80% of the time) and your budget.

    If recommendations exceed your budget, either wait and save or lower your expectations. Do it once, do it right.
