I'd like to, still pondering it. It's about time for new tires and i'd like to ditch my 215/75r15s forsomething like 30x9.50's or 31's. I don't know if there is a good way to lift the truck enough without ruining it or spending a bunch of money. Mine is pretty as of now.. Its a 318 powered x-cab sport.
