Out there that put 285 tires on your truck. How did you lift the truck. I really do not want my truck very high. Just enough to fit 285 tires on my stock aluminum wheels. I dont want it to rub the fender well or ride like crap. I dont like the idea of cranking on the steering components.
I know where the search button is, anyone got some pics and input?

I put the Green keys on mine. It is not realy an ideal lift but it did level out the front and gave me the ability to put 285's on. The ride is harder and it does do more wear and tear on the front end.
Cognito or Fabtech leveling units are the better way to go.

It won't rub the fenderwell except on the front on the driver's side where the washer fluid tank is. Just poke a hole in the liner there and wire or zip tie it back a bit. That was all I did.
