I fit 35x12.50s on my stock height F250 with zero rubbing. I'd imagine you could go to 37s with a 3" lift.

I like wider tires, but my stock rims now are only 6.5" wide, so I can't go much wider than a 285

Anybody have a pic of a 2012 and up f250 with a 2.5 or 3" ready lift? I'm about to do mine and trying to see which one to go with. I'll be running 35s

I have a 2in block on mine that I'm replacing in a few months. Probably going 2.5 ready lift and replacing the fomoco fake ranchos w/ 5100's. Timbren SES in the back to keep it from squating when loaded down

36x12.5x20's would perfect if they made them

Looks good! Same color as mine. How's the ride over stock? I plant on running the same tires just on stock Rims

Ride was pretty much the same, they basically just add a spacer on top of the stock suspension. I eventually upgraded the stock Rancho trash with a set of Bilstien 5100s and that made a difference as well.

Stupid question, but roughly how much would a 1.5 or 2inch lift kit cost to buy and have someone install? Or does it vary on the car model?

You can get one from 500-4000 really depends on brand and parts you change out. I never paid to get one put on but I would think around 500 bucks. A lift that small just get a friend and a icechest of beer. A

Thanks MarshMan. Currently, it really would just be used for the looks. Buddy has one on his Tahoe and I think it looks good and obviously has some benefits. Might look into it.

3" penis = 4" lift.

7" penis = 2" lift.

Hope this helps.

I wouldn't go over 4".

After a levelling kit I'm running 35s on my ram with no rubbing at all.



I wouldn't want to go any taller because of car washes and drive thrus...

Also, I second the Amp research steps. They're the tits.
