Although it's a suspension lift, here's 4" of lift with 35's:



Well it's a 4" kit anyway. I've got air bags in the back that add about 1/2" and I've got about a 1/2" of crank on the bolts, basically to keep it level and to allow for the extra weight of the grill guard and winch. So I guess technically I've got closer to 4.5" of lift, but close enough to give you an idea...

4" lift with 35s look better than any other setup to me. Can you put up a pic of your lift with the 33's?

Thanks guys for the pictures and all, as soon as I get back from NJ in two weeks I will post a picture not time right now.

I do like the 35" but look really close front and back I also like the Moto Metal rims so I just have not made up my mind.

like mentioned it's a combination of tire width, height and rim backspacing if going aftermarket... I'm running 34's on my stock height truck with no problems.
