: H-2's/305's stock truck, need help

I was running 285's on PYO's. Running 265's on Moto Metal now. A friend has H-2 wheels with new 305's. Now I know they will not fit. I have been reading all the threads.


No major wheeling for me, just driving in the snow, or the field roads to hunt. Not many boosted 4x4 launchs, and no racing. Being broke, how can I cost effectively raise/lift my truck to allow me to safely run this wheel/ tire combo?

Greens keys and blocks? Leveling kit and blocks? I trimmed the inner fender for the 285's.

Thanks for the help.

X2..I ran the H2's with the 315's since the first week I bought the truck new. Just a little trimming, tied off emergency brake and cranked bars. I then went to 305's and now back to 315's.

So crank the factory bars to level, what about shocks, as I will be replacing them? Add plus 1's or what?? I know I will need alignment as well correct? I am just paranoid about breaking stuff.

Thanks for the replies, btw.

yea if youre getting new shocks anyways look into the bilsteins or shock extenders and something cheaper an alignment is highly suggested if you have some extra cash id look into the cognito front end parts braces etc
