I spent a lot of time on this forum and others trying to get the look I wanted for my 2010 Lariat SuperCrew before I added my new tires and a leveling kit. Everybody has an opinion and many of yours with pictures really helped guide me to the right decision. I just wanted to post pics and specs now that mine is done in case there are others out there trying to do what I did to my truck.

I upgraded my tires from the stock 275/65r18 to Goodyear Duratrac 275/70r18. This gave me about 1" more tire. I kept the stock wheels. I then installed an Autospring 1.5" Leveling Kit I picked up directly from Autospring for cheap. It was easy to install. I am not a mechanic, but installation was very straightforward (just make sure you have the right tools).

After the tires were installed, but before the leveling kit, my rear fender was 40 3/8" from the ground and the front fender was 37 3/4" (about 2 5/8" rake). After the leveling kit was installed, the rear fender was 40 1/8" and the front fender was 39 3/4" (about 3/8" rake). I then had it aligned (which is required if you want to keep your tires) and the rear stayed at 40 1/8", but the front dropped to 39 1/2" after the toe was straightened out.

This setup left just over 1/2" of rake in my truck to offset my trailer weight. I know some people like a truck perfectly level, but this is exactly they way I wanted it to end up. I couldn't be happier.

Thanks to everybody that had previously posted their pictures so I could learn from you guys. Hopefully this helps somebody else out in the future.

 

That truck is looking very nice! It turned out great!

 

Lookin' good!

 

Very nice! I, myself, prefer to keep the factory stance, but you did very nicely not jacking it up to the clouds. Those tires fill the wheelwells perfectly. Good job.
How do they compare to the stockers as far as ride and noise?

 

Looks good nice job!
