Fox 2.0 W/ Zone 4.5in Lift

[NoleLife]

I saw a previous post by a member with the *big* blue Silverado (6.5in lift with Fox shocks for an extra inch or two). I have a 2016 with a 4.5in and 285/65/R20 on 20x9 wheels. I have a smidge of rubbing when at full block while slowing down in a parking lot. I'm in need of new tires and would like to go with a 35x12.50 but am certain they will rub (looking at either an MTR, Toyo Open Country, or the Goodyear Duratecs)

 

I was looking at these Fox 2.0:

Will they provide the ability to add an inch or two without having to change out other stuff? My alternative is to contact Zone and request that parts that differ between the 4.5in lift and the 6.5in and have them swapped out. If the fox route is doable, how much will it impact my CV angles in the front? 

 

Lastly, with a higher stance, I'd want to add a little more offset on the wheels. With the offset I picked, they are mostly tucked under the fenders entirely. Does anyone here have experience with 1-1.5in spacers and their safety? I'd rather prefer to avoid purchasing an entire new set of wheels. 

 

Thanks!

Those fox’s will give you up to 2” more and with any change in suspension geometry you should get an alignment .

Also as long as you get a good quality spacer such as Bora you’ll be fine. Look for lug and wheel centric
