if you go up you gotta make it pretty aggressive. if you go down you gotta make it really clean and simple.

Your avalanche looks good.

I've got a few quick questions about your hoe. You were running 305/70's on factory rims right? And all you had done was Ford Keys, and 1in rear spacers? Did you have any rubbing problems that weren't fixable by some simple triming?

I was going to do 1.5" rear spacers, and ford keys. But I was going to get 285/70's on 17" aftermarket wheels. But after seeing your's I'm thinking about 305/70's. Just need to get some more money saved up and make a damned decision. (I'm kind of indecisive)

Yeah I was runnin 305/70s on the factory rims!! My front didnt rub at all unless I was in a really bad bind....the back you have to flip the shock bolt and I was runnin some 1/4" wheel spacers cuz I was rubbin on the the lower link....It is a really good setup though....it looked ten times better then 285s IMO

Heres a few pics of it with various setups

Ford keys, 1" spacer , 305s

same as above with 285 toyo a/t

Ford keys with 33x13.50 Iroks

I will post up some more pics of the avy soon....It doesnt even look like the same truck.....no eblems, pin stripes, z66 stickers, nerf bars, and its clean!!
AND 24"s are being picked up this weekend!!!:head:
