It will allow you to clear 315/70-17's (35x12.50) using the oem wheels.

Thanks for all this feedback. I got the leveling kit installed yesterday and it looks great.

Also got the new tires, went with Hankook rh07, which were rated favorably too.

Great feedback, thanks again.

I had the 2" kit put in yesterday and it's looking good. Not sure 2 1/2 wouldn't work too, but I"m new to all this and so can't say anytying practical about the relative merits. That said, the 2" kit looks good.

This might be a dumb question, but is this why people choose the spacers over something like the Bilstein 5100s? I really want to level out my truck, while keeping my ride as close to stock as possible and hopefully not putting too much stress on any suspension components. Cost aside, are spacers preferable to the shocks for my needs?
