That's a pretty sharp truck there, V10Venom. Is that a custom paint?
mopar6spd, my invoice doesn't have itemized prices, but if memory serves, the leveling kit was $750 or so installed.
Shop guy agreed with me that the front was too high. Luckily the leveling kit for my '03 allows for adjustment, so they're going to drop the front back down an inch or so. Maybe that will ease my mind a bit about the tires.
When I look at the rear tires they look fine. It's when looking at the front that they seem too small. At any rate, the guy rolled out a larger tire around 34 1/2 for comparison and while it would fill out the wheel well nicely I can see what he's saying about the danger of rubbing. I don't want to cut and I don't want rubbing, so I'm just going to suppress my OCD and move on.
Next up, exhaust and trim. I think I want to get some fender flares since the tires are so much wider. Anyone have recommendations?

You can fit 34.5 in tires. I have them on mine with no rubbing and I've had 35" tires on mine also with no issues.
Don't give up!!
