Waiting on tires now... (Pic)

Well, I took advice from this forum and went with a 2 1/2 leveling kit and a 1.5 AAL. I am just waiting to save some cash so I can get the 305/55/20's mounted to the stock rims. Thanks for all your advice, I love the look of the truck now!

I think it was around $650 everything installed. I had it done at a local company here in the metro Detroit suburbs. Their website is not up yet but will be soon:

That looks great. What was the actual lift over stock, front and rear, as I am really leaning towards doing the same thing on my FX4 when it is delivered later this month?

Also, how level does it sit now and what brand AAL and Leveling kit did you go with?

Looks nice! I was lucky, I went with the AS 2.5" and no AAL and mine sits really nice and level. I'm now saving up for some Nitto TG's

I also went with a 2.5" leveling kit without the AAL in the rear and mine sits perfectly level! That with a set of 33x12.5 Pro Comp Xtreme Ats on 17X9 wheels and it looks like a different truck!

The front went up 2 1/2" and the rear 1.5". It sits very level now, looks like the way a truck is supposed to look. I will post some before and after front end pics. They really show a nice difference.

Thanks. I was just asking as many have gotten 3"+ from the 2.5" leveling kit.
