Whats up, just wanted to leave my footprint. Heres my 16" Silverado 1500. it has a 4 inch BDS lift, 275/65R20 Mickey Thompson ATZ P3 tires, wheels are plastic dipped until i find the perfect wheel combo. I have a Borla Exhaust S-type, Airaid Jr MIT, and a Diablo Custom Tune from Lew. I also have some Amp Research Power steps. Heres a picture of her all washed up and waxed with Adams Polishes.

Looks good did the same lift about a week ago yet to pick out a tire on stock wheels myself. Was thinking 285/65/20, do you have the add a leaf in the back or a 5" blocks? Edited December 17, 2016 by Steeks

Show us some pictures! I love the way the stock wheels looks plastic dipped black. It looks very good for now. I'm just really being picky about the wheels for my truck, I haven't found the right one that gets my attention. I have the 4" block, I don't think it should have the 5" block. I checked my invoice and it says 4" but who knows. The only thing is that I do notice that it still has a small rake to it. I brought it up to the shop "off road Warwhouse" in temecula but they said it was fine. I will be sending an email and dimensions to BDS.

if you don't want rake get smaller blocks, or put a spacer in the front. If you want attention grabbing wheels get billets

Tapatalk on mobile is just about the easiest way to post pics.

And who cares if its dirty..... It's a truck.

I have this kit. I have 275/65r20 which is basically 34 inçh. I am thinking i can get 35s on easily.

This kit requires alot of cutting. Cannot be reversed unless uou are good with a welder.

But it doesnt change yourstock stance which is why i did it.

The knuckle or bracket requires a lot of cutting? I'm trying to avoid this. Thanks

I have the bracket kit. It required a lot of cutting. I am sure there is cutting in the knuckle kit as well. Just about every kit manufacturer has install instructions on their website. Take a look I personally was looking for the end result I got so it was the only choice for me. I didn't want a knuckle kit. I did not wanto widen the stance.

I gotcha. I didn't realize that the knuckle kit widen the stock stance. This will be my first lift.

Just got the zone 6.5 installed. love the ride but I went with the standard hydro shocks with the kit. Anyone know if the upgraded Fox shocks 2.0 are worth the upgrade or are they gonna be more stiff?

As far as ride quality now it feels like stock up front, a little more bounce to the back on the freeway but nothing too bad.

the fox's may help a little but the back is always going to stiffen up once lifted

Yeah I read tons of posts and people kept saying they road better - now I believe them. I always thought it was bs.

I'm running my stock all terrain 20" wheels for now. On 35 12.50 ridge grapplers.
