2" leveling kit pics

Hey, im looking very hard at leveling spacers for my truck.

Id like to see pics of guys running a 2" leveling spacer with 33s or 35s. If you have a before and after pic of them installed, that would be IDEAL.

Heres a pic of mine without the 2" spacers (old pic on slanted driveway, but you get the idea)

Mine w/ a leveling kit and 35's I went w/ new springs versus pucks. Backspacing is very important to get 35's on w/ no rubbing

Stupid question I'm sure, but why a leveling kit? Does this help the trucks mileage or is it just looks?

Thanks for educating me.

Doesn't help with mileage, It allows for clearance of 35" tires. Cosmetic thing

I am not sure of the backspacing, the wheels came on the truck. At that time he was running 285/75/16's he now runs 305/70/16s. He is running just a 2" leveling kit no extra lift.

Heres mine with 2" leveling in front, but also did 1" or 1.5" block in back to keep the rear up/proper stance.




One thing to consider is clearance. I know everyone says 35"s clear just fine.. but with a simple ranchhand on the front 35"s would not clear on my truck.. maybe somethings whacked on the front end (although tireshop says everything is fine):




I had to cut away a bunch of the fender... and since then they still hit when offroading so i trimmed it back about another 2" further than this picture. This was just to get the tires to stop rubbing while turning into driveways.
