stock rims or aftermarket?

I had 33.9 in tires on mine a while bark with no torsion twist I think it would be a very tight fit but maybe doable

well a leveling kit for your truck is just reindexed torsion keys. so it just cranks your torsion bars to the max which is very bad, also you couldn't crank your torsion bars any more after installing it.

You are about to waste money and destroy your front end. Either crank up your torsion bars with the stock keys and run 35x12.50 tires on your OEM wheels or 33's on wider aftermarket wheels or install a 3 inch body lift and then run 35's with wider wheels.

yes i agree with wandell and dillon, just crank your tbars now and dont bother with aftermarket keys, ive seen where my friend bought aftermarket keys and cranked some more on top of that and his front end just collapsed on the tires, but it was a chevy 2500

Here is my 01 with just the tortion bars turned up and 35s on it. I moved back my running boards and took off the lower front plastic piece. No rubbing at all so it will work. I do have 17x9 helos not the stock rims though.
