I do not plan on going bigger than 35s at all. I will be running 33s with a 2.5" lift until I save up for some 4.56 or 4.88 gears and I will go with that and 35s on new rims all at once.

I think the 2.5 is perfect without being too "high" for 33s and too "low" for 35s.

armycop - so you're running 2.75" of lift? That's a perfect look you got there. I think I will go with a 2.5" BB with extensions.

I am looking at the same size tire now. Was thinking of getting the Teraflex leveling kit ($129) to make room for the tires and figured I could use it later in addition to a coil lift if I go to 35's for additional lift or leveling. It adds 2" in front (2x1" stacked) and 1" in rear.
