you have almost 5" of lift and only run 33s? I ran 285/65r18 BFG A/Ts with just front RC spacers, about 2" lift. no rubbing at all on stock wheels

Offset can make a huge difference in rubbing or not

i run the stock 265 70 17's which is a 31.6" tire because i dont have an extra 1500 for wheels and tires laying around... however when i do purchase wheels and tires im leaning more towards a 295 on a 17x9" wheel. looking at getting either pro comps (like the ones on my maroon and white truck) or DC-2's. they both only have about 4.75" of back spacing.

 

backspacing is something im not real familiar with... the wheels i like do not have very much for back spacing.

 

also note that the 04 and 08 pics are of the same wheels 16"... a little grinding on the calipers and they fit on my 08... however i do not recommend that because it doesnt allow the proper amount of air flow to cool the front brakes properly... the wheels actually got really HOT and when braking it would shake the truck... but it was a lot cheaper than getting 17's with new sneakers... as im finding out

Because he needs every inch of it. 33 x 12.50 > 32.59 x 11.22 (285/65/18). Aftermarket wheels don't help either.

Lift is still holding up great! Glad i didnt listen to the horror stories because im really happy with it. I think i got around 15k on it. Just got back from Colorado elk hunting trip where i put 3000 miles on it alone. Drives down the road great! Tires are wearing perfect! If you drive slow with the windows down you can hear the rear shock make a little bit of noise, but nothing too bad. Once again, im sure there are better lifts out there, but for $800 installed, this one is perfect for me. For the money i could not be any happier!! And even with 5" 33x12.50 with aftermarket wheels still rub. Had to trim some plastic

Does this pic have the BL on it? It doesnt look like it from the bed gap. Just curious.

that is the complete 4.75" RCX lift kit. so yes the 1.25" BL is installed. otherwise with my choice of dual exhaust i couldnt have put my 3.5" tips on because they would have hit the rear bumper

Awesome pics brother, I'm a newb tryin to lift my truck, it's a 2WD Silverado 2010 ext cab, I want to buy the 4.75 rough and country combo life, and I have a 22" wheels that I want to run them on my truck, didn't buy the tires yet.

Would my truck be leveled after installing that kit? Or do I need to install a leveling kit as well?

I want to run XXX/55r22 tires on it would that lift kit make me able to?

Any comments r welcome, thanx
