Default Ram with 9" or 10" lift

Has anyone done one yet or seen one? A 6 inch lift with 3 inch body or a 7 inch for the 2wd with a 3 inch body? Was wondering how it looks and the biggest tire that can be ran.

Also on a side note. Anyone running 20x12 inch wheels on a lifted new ram?

I've got an 8 inch lift and 20x10s. I think thats about the biggest so far unless you're talking about a 2500/3500

I think Raw Ram is asking about a 2WD...........
the 4WD will look different from the front, on my 6 inch lift there is nothing you can see from the front, and I always look to see if I can see other lifts control arms pointing down. My old 99 dodge has the control arms pointing down.

BULLRAM, what do you think of that lift from a drive quality standpoint? And how much has MPG suffered?

My lift is the 4 inch with the 2 inch spacers, to get to the 7 inch you have to get the 3 inch spacers, i have not seen these yet , but I KNOW the ride will suffer, these are about all you want to go , unless it doesnt matter to the owner about the ride, right now it is stiffer than stock but doesnt slam or bottom out on the roads, (of coures it is not the feel of stock),
'
Sobo, its funny as long as I am on the highway it only lost maybe 1 or 2,(still past 20MPG the city is different, my driving is mostly 90% highway, unless putting around town.
