You should have just bough an autospring for $100. I think $300 for a coil spacer is way too much. You shouldnt have any rubbing with those tires on your stock wheels.

If your going to spend that much money on a spacer you might as well get the Skyjacker 3" kit.

I think it will look great. Just some food for thought though, you could go with an autospring or the daystar, which would save you some money. BUT then again, i didnt either. I went with the 3" Skyjacker Kit and spent 500. Once you level it out with the 3" spacer, you might want to add an inch or so to the back.

Good luck and show some pics when youre done

I got a question... if the kit in the link says it will lift up 3" and that equals out with the back end; then why does Autospring 2" or 2 1/2" equal out too? Or does the Autospring "almost" make it level?

I think the autospring 2 1/2" actually is like 3 inches of lift or some crap like that. Maybe this is just 3" of actual lift. Just like the 4" lift and the 6" lift are almost the same height. Stupid manufatures... they don't know how to use a tape measure.
