I went with the 4" front and rear kit to get the *** up an inch so it still has a tad more lift when I'm towing. The guys at wicked said if you don't get the bumper spacer you will have to do some minor trimming. With the spacer there is no trimming so I got it as cutting anything on a 70k truck makes me uneasy 😁

Those are actually the Goodyear Wrangler's… Once I sell my 05 2500 HD which I've been pretty lazy at doing since I haven't even put it up for sale in the last 2 1/2 months, it will be getting new rims and tires.
