I am pretty sure you will need some wheel spacers because the tires will rub up against the upper ball joint area. You probably wont even be able to mount them up without wheel spacers... but I am no IFS guru either, so dont quote me.

Fitting and being functional are two different things...

If it's for looks and you are a pavement queen, then 35s will fit with just a level. If you actually use your truck like a truck or plan to off-road then just the level won't do.

In that case I'd either plan on a level and 33s or a level/body lift combo and 35s...

currently renovating my house and have been using my truck but its mostly on pavement, i go off road 5 or 6 times a year to the huntin camp. i mainly want to get 35's because i get alot of snow and in the winter i leave for work before the plows are out

what about 34's?

and what do you think about this kit?
