2018 Silverado w 2” level kit, let’s see em’!

[britishcanuk]

I just got a 2018 Silverado 4x4 and wanted to level it. What size level kit should I get? I don’t want to over do it, just want to improve the clearance a bit and make it look a little nicer. I’ve seen some trucks that look a little high in the front, I want to avoid that. FWIW, my mechanical knowledge is limited and this is my first truck.

 

Also, does anyone have pics (maybe before/after) of their trucks with a leveling kit only (not too interested in lifted). I’d also be interested in advice on wheel/tire size possibilities with a level kit. Thanks in advance for your time, tips and advice. Cheers!

As rkj_ said there are a lot of topics already covering this.

 

Anyway, here's my 2018 Crew cab 6.5' box pre and post level, not the best angle pictures... I installed the 2" RC level kit and really like the look of the truck after. Definitely get an alignment no matter what you go with. There's also one with a load on it for reference.

 

So far I still have the original tires but those will probably be upgraded to either the Falken Wildpeak at3w LT275/70R18 or Michellin Defender LTX M/S LT275/70R18 when these wear down enough. Just have to decide if I want a nice highway tire or something a little aggressive looking.

 

Congrats on your new truck, I'm up to 7000 miles and really liking this truck so far. Last vehicle was a 2007 Silverado ext. cab classic so this is a bit of an upgrade even though I loved that truck.

I still have about 1/2"-3/4" of rake, but I also have air bags in the back to keep it level while towing and loaded up.
