Lifting my long bed XL

I think the time has come to put a little money into my truck. I drive it daily, and want to get some fun out of it. I have been thinking I want to raise it up some and put some nice tires on it. Here is a pic of what I have.



What I am thinking about is an AS lift/level kit. I seem to have trouble finding pics of long bed trucks that really have anything done to them. If you have a plane jane XL long bed with anything done to it please post up pics for reference.

As stated above I will need new tires. What would be a good tire size to put on it? I am 99% sure I am keeping the stock wheels because I like them, and to keep the cost down. So keep that in mind.

Pretty much share your thoughts and opinions on everything if you can.

Yea, a lot of people don't lift those because they're usually work trucks ha. But long beds always look better lifted than stock

I've only seen one other reg cab long bed f150 lifted, and it was the 97-03 body style, lifted like 13" on 42s or something, and it had a blue flame paint job. The guy has his truck somewhere on this forum, but I can't remember his name. A 2.5" leveling kit and some 33x12.50s would look good on your truck and not cost too much.
