    I'm looking at getting some 18" xd monster wheels with 285/60/18 tires. Can I get some 5100 billies all the way around with a 2" toytec AAL? I will be setting the front at 1.75.

    I'm going to order them from downsouthmotorsports. Do I need to get the 0-1.5" rear shock option or the 3-4" option?

    if he is only getting a 1.5-2" and the longer shock and wheels his truck, he might have to take caution for topping the shock out. but from what it sounds like there might be little to no wheeling. yes downtravel is great and all up you also need to account for travel the other way

    I probably wont be wheeling much if any. So are you saying the shorter shock would be better for me?
