Looks awesome! The tires and wheels are perfectly proportioned. What was included in your level kit? Did you change caster bushings? Trac Bar bracket? How does it drive compared to factory?

Look too high in the front for some reason.
Wheels look nice.

First, great looking truck, congrats. It may be the pic, but is the rear sagging?

4 wheel parts installed the Pro Comp 2.5 suspension lift and adjusted the steering wheel. With the factory 20" it road exactly the same. Now it rides a little stiffer but not bad at all. I am very happy with it and glad I went with the 37s.

Also, I would love to see a straight-edge measurement of what this took the rear highest part of the cab height up to if you ever get a chance to get out and do it.

Perfect stance on that truck, just what I want to do to mine when it arrives in 3 weeks. Are the wheels 9" or 10" wide? Also, what is the offset? Is there any rub at all?

Sorry for the n00b question.. Are you going to tow? I keep looking at after market rims, and I'm unclear how to ensure they are as.. 'robust' as factory? are they tested the same? Is just not a concern, rims don't collapse? Just sort of worried I'll put on some pretty tires (I think the platinum 20s are ugly as hell, would kill my wifes cat in exchange for the lariut 20s), tow somethines, and.. CRUSH. haha.

I'll sell you the Lariat Machined 20's. I'm going with aftermarket wheels.

Great looking truck! Thanks for sharing. Those wheels are the exact size as my wheels. With no lift, I occasionally rub (very slightly) with 35" tires (325/60r20). Glad to see that the leveling kit allows 37" tires to fit with no rubbing!
