Like I said looks great... My FX4 came with 18 inch rims does anyone know what the biggest tire I can put on that rim would be? I'm looking for a similar look as 04XLTRunner has on his truck.

what year is your fx4. if its an 09 than you could maybe go with a 35x12.5x18. or even a 33x12.5 would look good. but you would need the level kit for the 35's. i picked mine up from daystar.


and thanks everyone for the comment. i appreciate it. sorry for the dirty picture. truck is getting a full detail today and ill take another picture so yall can see it clean.

My truck is an 09 Supercrew with 5.4 towpkg and 3.73 rear end. Did your daystar leveling kit change your ride at all?

Was it hard to put the kit on? Im pretty sure i can do it I changed the sturts spings and shocks on my mustang so I know i can do this I just worried about with kit to get with the whole you get what you pay for ideal. I call 4 wheel parts and they charged about 500 or so total. the ready lift kit for 2 somthing then shop fee and alignment. but there was this other thing not sure what it was but they said i needed it cause it was 4wd. I dont know if you can help me make a choice of doing it my self let me know. Ive been looking at day star, pro comp, ready lift and rough country.

kit was very easy to install. i can probably name all the tools you need to do it with off the top of my head. i payed 230 for the daystar kit. and you dont NEED it because your 4x4. its just your preference. i like the kit, it was worth my money.

What kind of tires are you running. I have 285/65r20 BFG a/t on my 09 f150. With a 2" leveling kit on the front. I didn't get nearly the miles out of them that I thought I would considering how much I paid. I am wanting to try 35x12.5 20". The only thing that scares me is crossing ditches or having it at a weird angle. I don't want to tear my truck up trying to stuff tires under it. Have yours given you any trouble off road?
