what size tires to go w/ leveling kit?
i want to go to a bigger tire now that i have leveled my truck using 2" spacers. what is the largest or should i say widest size tire i can go to w/o them rubbing at full lock? i will also be using a plow a couple times a year and it drops the front around 1/2 inch.

You can run 37s. XLR8R is running 37s without a leveling kit, as am I. With a 4" front and 2" rear lift, I will be running 41s.

I do but not on stock rims. On the stocker they'll definately rub the control arms.
