    O ok I see. So I could do AAL's (and possibly something else) instead of a lift kit?

    Well the AAL is part of the lift kit, and AAL's are only for the rear. For the front you want shocks and springs, such as Bilstein 5100's (shocks) and OME 885's (springs).

    Ok this is all making much more sense. So basically I am left with two options:

    1. Just get some 265/70/17 tires to go with my new wheels.

    orrr

    2. Spend some extra dough and get a lift kit so I can fit some even bigger tires on it.

    I know I would love the look of my truck lifted. I was nervous about buying these wheels and new tires but them being too small and then I spent all that money for nothing. Would 265/70/17 look stupid with a 3 inch lift? Would they look small even on stock suspension?


    Thanks sooo much this will really help me!!!
