more lift???

Hey everyone i have recently turned 16 and baught my first truck. Its a 97 f150 flareside with a 5" lift on it. My question to everyone is would it look good to put a 3" body lift on it? I'm not sure if it would look good or just lifted the wrong way? Any opinion would help, and i was also wondering wat size tires would i need to put on? thanks for all the help. This webiste rules!!!

Welcome to the site! Is your truck a 4x2 or 4x4? What size tires are you running now?

A 37" tire would look great with 8" of lift!

a wide 35" would look good so would a 36 to 37 you could probably go with a 38 if you cranced the torsion bars and did alittle triming is it a 4x4 or 4x2
