Lift and Tire Question

I have a 99 f-150 supercab would like to upgrade and add a 3'' body lift with 305's. Already have bfg 285's on 16x8 eagle 143's. Does anybody have this combo our a similar one. Would like to have some imput on how it looks my truck looks pretty good as is with the set up I got now, but always like going bigger.


THANKS

99 ORP with 305/70/16 Pro Comp M/T's and 16" Atlas wheel. Suspension is factory. You don't really need a body lift unless you have a 4x2. Hope this helps.

No, its all factory for now. No twist on the bars. I did trim about 1/4" off of the front valance (used a pair of tin snips). Truck turns fine from lock to lock. The only tires I have heard of rubbing is the tires with large side lugs. The ProComp M/T's are meaty but sit the same under the truck as my AT/S tires. 305's will fit under most trucks with minimal rubbing if any. I was just thinking that us Ford guys have it nice since we don't have to lift the body 3" and expose a huge section of the frame rails to fit 33" tires like the Z71's.
