If I was any taller I would go wider also. Or if I get 35's like I am planning on I will go wider. But that's after I get a few dents

i like the build you got.. similar to what i've been working on mine.
so, currently, you are only running some 2.5 spacers in front, on stock springs?
what tires do you have? metric? what is the width and bs on your wheels?
i've always been a fan of narrow and tall tires.

The 3" spacers up front measure 2.5" of lift after you install them because i removed the stock spacer. Which the directions said to.
back spacing is stock at 4.5".
Tires are 235/85/r16. 32" tall by 8" tread width. They are federal couragia mt's. 10ply.

nice.. i am going to have to look at that size.. i currently have some moabs w/stock 245/75 mtr.. would like a little more height, but not add more weight. was considering 255/85, but thats quite a bit more weight. bad thing about 16s, is all the load E tires..

Yes, but the 10 ply tires are great in rocks and you can always find skinny ones.
15in tires you have to pay big dollars for strong sidewalls, and they always are 10.5 or wider.
Its all preference.

Weill I installed the bilsteins and 3in springs as well as modified the lca mounts. Moved the axle a half inch forward with the adjusters. Took me about 3hrs.
So now it rides like a log wagon
I really like the stock springs and spacers better than the 3in springs. But I don't want to swap them out at the moment.

RC actually has a soft spring rate.. somewhere around 160ish.. thats the reason i bought them.. flex great.. ride is so-so.. i think my bro's RE 3.5 rode better, but their spring rate is like 220, so i'm not sure how that happened.
