Default Maybe a little bit taller....

Ok so I just bought a set of rims for my truck. And since my birthday is next week my parents decided they'd buy the tires for them. So I picked out some Ultra T6 260's in a 17" wheel, wrapped in Toyo ATs. Well the truck looks really really good. Looking at it now though I really want to get a couple inches under it. I know that if I crank the torsion bars in the front I can get an inch and a half or so and I can get 2" blocks for free. Well the only problem is I think it might look a little funny with the size tires I got now. I think they are 275/60R17s but to be honest I cant remember and its 1 am so im not going out to look. So I need a vote or something, Im not going to go up in the tire size but should I get the little bit extra height or not? Im not sure if it will look funny or not. The tires I think come out to be a hair under 31". Im just bouncing this off you guys what does everyone think.

well if your tires are just under 31's, then you shouldnt need to lift it. or just crank the T bars to make your truck level.
