Advice and Pics if you got them

I have a 2005 SCREW 4x4, and I am thinking about a 2.5" leveling kit and the largest tires I can put on some 20" XD Badlands. Is anyone running this setup? Any tips advice would help me a lot.

I've got an 05 Screw with the Autospring 2.5" front level kit and a Skyjacker 1.5" add a leaf in the rear. You can get by with just the front kit but some guys think their trucks look nose high or if you tow or haul it will bulldog pretty easy. I like just a little of the factory rake and I tow a 20' boat so I went with the add a leaf. If you want to raise the rear a little and don't tow or haul stuff, many are using a bigger spacer block in the rear.

Rims are Incubus 20x9 with 5.9" of backspace. Tires are BFG K/O 285/65/20 (34.8x11.5) I really like this setup because there is no rubbing and they fill the wheel wells. Using aftermarket rims and a tire close to 35" can be a pretty touchy ordeal.

Do a search and you will find hours of reading on the subject. Good luck !

Thanks man ! That was pretty much what I was going for. I've had the big over the top trucks with big tires, lights.... . you know the routine. Nothing wrong with it, just wanted something simple this time.
