Well I ordered them on a monday mid day and got the them on a Wednesday off of ebay for $65 with free shipping. Took me sometime to get the first side on after some trial and error, must have taken close to two hours. The other side was a breeze and couldn't have taken more time than 30-45mins.

Before I ordered my leveling kit I measured the front and back from the tire to the fender and my back was 2.5 inches higher than the front. For money sake, I just got the 2" leveling kit and it actually looks pretty level but I haven't had a chance to measure it yet.

I really like the 07 20's on your truck. Now I cant decide between Off Road 17's or the 07 20's when I get new tires! But I will definatly be getting the HBS spacer!

I haven't priced any tires for 17"s but tires for 20"s are expensive as hell. 4 tires, mount, balance, taxes, etc, right at $900. Other than that, I love the look of em. Rides very smooth. I wish I could have found a set of the same wheels but in chrome. Silver looks great though. It was a steal when I found these for $200. Couldn't pass that up. I found another set close to me for $1000. It's on craigslist. Tires are almost brand new.

I love my hbs spacers, dont forget that when you put the leveler on you will be lowering the back end a little, I got the 2.5 inch spacer and put a 1.5 in add a leaf in the back and that made my truck sit almost perfectly in my opinion. btw, anyone who wants a set of coils springs red, with a hbs 2.5 inch spacer powdercoated of course, and back leaf springs with 1.5 inch add a leaf and all those are red also could get them all from me for about $150, look real nice too, I am getting a 6 inch lift in about 2 months so I wont be using that stuff anymore.
