As long as it is a full drop kit you should be alright

You can always run a spacer so they don't rub on the UCAs i think

It depends on the kit. Check the manufacturer. Some will say you can NOT run stock wheels and some will say you can.

I ran H2's and 315's with my 7-9" Cognito with 1/4" spacers up front.

IIRC its mainly with spnidle lifts. If the lift was a full drop utilizing factory or OEM spec spindles then you should be alright

You're right, but you can run H2's on some, if not all, of Cognito's spindle lift kits.

yea, its a Pro Comp full drop kit, so i guess im good..i sure wish someone here would show a pic of their 6" lift with H2's,,,seems like eveyone just gets custom wheels after the lift and only run h2's when leveling...:(

i think that is because of the fact that most lifts don't allow you to use the factory wheels so most will budget in new aftermarket rims with the lift

If you look in my garage, there is a picture of my black 06 all dirty. It is wearing H2's with a 6" lift.
