What sizes tires would you go with?
Wusup everyone. Im about to make a purchase of a new set of tires. I have a 02 QC 1500 that I think has been leveled out. Reason being my brother has a 05 QC 1500andIm sitting a few inches taller than him ,plus mine has two inch blocks of some kind under the rear leaf springs which tells me something has been done! So if the trucks IS leveled will I be able to clear 35's on the stock rims or should I just gowith a set of 33' tires? Anys pics of your trucks with A/T or M/T with the stock 20's I would love to see. Also I would love to see what a set of 18's with toyo's or nitto's look like as well. Ive been seriously thinking of the black MOTO metal wheels with a toyo or nitto tire wrapped around but def. would love to see what the 18 would look like before I make the jump. Thanks for the time and I definitely appreciate it!

You will clear 33's fine bone stock, I know a lot of guys with just a level kit rub with 35's, although some don't (might be the kit, backspace of the rims, etc.) 3" of lift (normal body lift kit) clears 35's with a hair to spare, and ANY suspension lift should clear easily. I have a 4" Rancho Suspension lift and it clears my 35" FCII's with a good bit to spare. My rims are 17x9 Mickey Thompson Classic II's.
My 4" suspension lift has 2" blocks in the rear to give me a perfectly level look, so IMO if you have 2" blocks in the back and the truck sits level, you should be able to clear 35's, if the nose is down like a stock look, then 33's would be the way to go.
