Guyz, do you think the 3.0 is too much of a front end lift or should I go with the 2.5's. I'm not sure of the cons with 3".

Your post said you could get a good deal on a set of tires? I would love to pick your brain and see if you could get them cheaper, and yes, I will travel.

Thanks so much in advance. I also sent you an email.......
I CAN GET THEM FOR 660.00 FOR A SET OF 4. I AM ALSO IN TAMPA

Shop around the Hummer dealers in your area as they commonly do wheel tire swaps on brand new H2's. I bought a set of four (brand new take offs from a 04 H2) for $400 from Hummer of Concord, CA.

I also found a local tire shop that had two sets of 5 also H2 take off's. They put 24's on two H2's and did the spares as well. Someone spent HUGE $$$ for that set up. I tried to get a price but did not have time to talk to the owner about it.

Check my gallery for photos of our truck with 2.75" Protech Lift and the 315's.

Sweet lift + sweet tires for cheap = total change in truck look and very happy owner!

Take Care,
Brian at www.ProtechEZLift.com

Okay... I see why the leveling kit makes the truck look better on it's own but what if you're towing? With this kit on and you have a trailer on your hitch won't the back end be lower than the front? I'm kinda interested in this kit but I don't think it would be a good thing for me since I'm towing a boat almost every weekend.

Boy my wife would just love that. Let's see how much more money I can spend.

Cowchip.... you're right though, that does sound like a good idea.
