Lift and tire size need your input
Ok so im finally going to get a lift for my truck. I dont want anything too big but I am really wanting a leveling kit with 3 inch in the front and 1 or 2 inch lift in the back. The problem I have right now is I have toyo A/T tires. They are 285/70/17. They look a little small now. I have my T bars cranked about 2 inches. What do you all think? would they look stupid with that much of a lift or would it be perfect.

Three inches of keys or crank is a LOT of stress on the CV axles. You'd be better off leaving the keys cranked at 2" and doing a body lift to bring everything up 3" uniformly. A body lift does not add any angle to the CVs. That will give you 5" in the front and 3" in the rear which should be pretty much level and give you a real good height for 35s...
