    Damn they honestly look bigger, like 275 or even 285. I'm having a real hard time debating if I should play it safe and run 275/70/17 or risk it and go with 285. It's going to be on a 17x8.5 +0 wheel.

    Yeah I agree. I think its the combination is 16" wheel and the black faux bead lock. Make the sidewall look even taller.

    So I have been trying to research and understand lifts, so many options out there. I am looking for to keep the original rake or at least not have the Carolina Lean...will it work if I go Bilstein 5100's all around at highest option with a 1in spacer in rear? Thank you for your help! This is giving me headaches

    what youve got here would be a more "leveled" look. Thatll give you 2" front and 1" rear. If you want to maintain stock rake, 2" block would do it, or AAL as most people would recommend.

    Most people dont like the 5100's at the very top, I have mines on the 4th perch and say the ride is okay.

    Thank you! So, assuming I am understanding you correctly, if I want something similar to the stock rake, I should do 2" in front and a 2" block in rear? Again thank you for your help

    Yup, you just have to lift the front and rear equally and you get the stock rake. Good luck with the lift!

    18x9 +1 Fuel Contra 265/65/18 Nitto Ridge Grappler. Bilstein on all four corners. Front set at 1.5 inches (4th notch) with 1.5 tapered block in rear. I wanted to keep factory rake so I went 1.5 inches in front and 1.5 inches in rear. Truck sits 1 inch higher in rear just like it did before lift. I already had 50,000 miles on this truck and I can tell you it rides better than factory with this setup. I was prepared for it to be rougher riding but it is not.

    Late to the game on this thread. I am about to do a 2” front + 1” rear kit and wanted to know if anyone has issues with the front safety sensor after similar install?

    I cant speak from experience so someone can correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think you should have issue with that. The sensor may become more of an issue going with bigger lifts...

    If you're going with 5100's you should spend the extra coin and buy new springs so you can run shocks on the lowest perch setting.
