8 Inches and 35's

Ive been tossing around the idea of adding a 2 inch bl to my truck but not sure if it'd be too much lift for the 35's heres a current pic:
Opinions???

It will be fine man! If you are worried about that then get 37s when your 35s wear down

First off your truck looks sick bro! Second of all do a 3 inch body and the tires wont look bad my buddy just did it to his chevy 6inch suspension and 3 inch boday with 35x12.50s and they look fine.

Shouldn't look too bad, and there is no reason to go through the hassle of installing a body lift to get 2" instead of 3"! That includes paying to have it installed!

On our trucks, everything lines up much better with a 3 inch body lift. Personally, I'd leave it like it is or add the body lift and go to 37's.

Yeah as soon as you do it you will wish you had 37's...that was my original plan too but they looked too small so I went with the bigger ones and never looked back.
