Default Lift or Not

Just picked up an '04 Ram Hemi QC 4X4 SLT. This forum has been an excellent source of information since I bought this a week ago. I've posted a picture of my truck here. I'm wondering if this thing has a lift on it already. The 20" rims and tires dont even come close to filling up the wheel wells. Just wondering if anyone has an opinion. I'd like to fill up with wells with some larger tires to make it look better.

It looks like it might have a leveling kit (raises the front to match the height of the back). You could go with some bigger tires to fill it up a bit....thats what I would do. Also the hemi badge is in a werid spot...what was the guy thinking when he put it up there after putting those flares on?

I'm going to take the flares off and try to relocate the badges. How can i tell if a leveling kit has been added. Everything looks stock underneath. Also any recomondation on tires. This isn't a daily driver...just my toy my wife let me get.

Theres no leveling kit on that truck, its a stock 4x4. Look ontop of the front coil springs. Youll see a steal spacer between the coil spring and the mount..
