Tires / Wheels too big

Oh, and I also put SumoSprings longer bump stops on the frame for the front axle, that I would advise as well to mitigate clearance issues. Here are some pictures of my install:

Nice looking truck but if you have to lower the bump stops down and limit up travel then there are other issues and that is a terrible thing to advise, up travel from ride height is critical for suspension performance.

Looking at the pictures I would guess those wheels are 0 offset.

 

I actually didn't lower the bump stops, there is a kit to do that, but I instead went with the sumosprings bump stop replacement. They are intended to add 800lbs capacity when compressed, but in my set up they are about 3/4" from making contact unloaded, so there is plenty of suspension travel available (from making contact, and then compression of the sumosprings). The 2" lift is a spring spacer that seems to be working out well, I would have rather done the longer springs, but I was able to get the standard length at such a good deal, even with the spacers it was half the cost of the longer springs, even with lowest cost ones I could find.

 

18's will give you a much better ride,cheaper tires and Thuren's write up as Aedelheit posted. When we were in Florida the firepit wheels were very popular.
