BDS Lift kit question!!!
Ive got a 2006 F250 Lariat with a 6.0 and am currently running new 35" cepek's and have a zone 2" level kit up front and 3" block in the back. I am wanting to either do a BDS 4" or BDS 6", and I obviously want the wow factor but I know a lot of people say 6" lift w 35's doesn't look good, so there is that side of it, but on the other side if I went with a 4" lift, is it going to be noticeably and substantially taller then the 2" level kit and 3" blocks in the rear that I already have? I don't want the truck to look goofy with tires that are too small, but I also don't want to spend x amount of dollars on a 4" and after installed not be able to notice much gain in lift. Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Here is my old 2006 F-250 Lariat with 6.0...so basically what you have
4.5" Icon lift with 35x12.5/18 BFG's on 18x10 rims
12" of gap between the tires and the fender flares. You don't need a 6" lift. It's overkill IMO. 4" is plenty for 35" rubber

this 4.5" Icon lift uses a 5" lift block out back and 4.5" lift coils up front.
so yeah, you'd see a bit of a lift by going to an actual lift. but in my eyes you aren't going to see enough difference to justify the money spent
