Depends on how big of tires you want to go with , what kind of wheeling you do and how often do u do it and the all important how much are you willing to spend.
I don't always wheel , but when I do I keep it tight......... Stay dirty my friends.

Money not to big of a factor. But i was lookin to ride a couple trails an do some muddin every now an again. Lookin probebly 35s on tires. But mostly road riding

If your doing mostly on road with a little off roading here and there I wud go with a nice 2.5" budget boost either some spacers or springs and shocks that will give you plenty to clear 35s just IMO stay away from Tera flex coils they r very very stuff and on road ride is uncomfy at best

You wouldnt do a 3" or higher lift?
mrmet1983

If you have an automatic and go bigger than 3" you will need a new front DS and somethung to correct ur steering geometry such as adj front and rear track bars so your adding about 1000$ extra just so get that extra 1/2"-1 I wud recommend getting a 2.5" with new springs and shocks and you will be very pleased how that will look with 35s and if you want that extra inch later on you can just get a set of spacers for 125$

Thanks and I'm not sure if I have any pics with no tire but I can tell u it's a great kit very strong I've had it on for 2000 miles with a few off road trips and not a single rattle it seems perfect for.a 35 but i will be changing it out when I get 37s

You will be very pleased its very strong and sturdy I've done some hard trails bouncing all around and not a peep from it just make sure everything is right and leave ur stock tailgate bumpstops on those will help also
