Long story short, I got tired of the rough ride of my -2 keys up front and -3 springs in the rear, so decided to put it back to stock height. Well for some reason I ended up buying Moog replacement Z71 springs cause I got rid of my stock ones. Now I'm sitting at 38" in the rear and 36" in the front... I really miss how it looked lowered but love the ride quality now. Definitely need's some 33" tires to look better sitting this high now!

So I went from this...

I know! I really wish I wouldn't of gotten in such a hurry to lower it the cheapest way and got Spindles so it road better, but oh well. I really would like some 33's but it will be awhile since my wheels/tires are only a couple months old since I planned to stay lowered. 33's are hella expensive!

I went from lowered to lifted to.... but to an entirely different truck!!! lol

From my 08 Sierra to my 04 Z71 Tahoe. I like being lifted better, but miss the speed of my 08.

Im not really feeling your wheels, id probably change that if it were mine. Im not much into solid black wheels. I like some contrast, maybe some rivets or something to break up the solid black.

Are you wanting all terrains or mud?

Yeah, I mainly got them because I wanted something other than stock and were a closeout wheel on tirerack, olnly ran me $129 each. I really like the Nitto Grappler Trails. Hopefully will be getting 2" Ford keys soon to bring the front up level with the rear at 38"

I know how you feel. My Yuk is stock now. I want a mild lift and new wheels, but my wife does not like that look.

Yeah, I can't till I can get some now. Would look soooooo much better now that I got my 2" keys installed over the weekend. Also found a pic of a Jeep with 33s on my wheels!
