I'll try to post a picture of my setup when I get home.

225/75x16. Fitted with new rear springs which has put an extra 2 inch over standard. New front springs have given 1/2 inch lift.

P.O. Said this is a BDS 4" lift... It sits on 31x10.5x15's. Looks like front springs, spacers and out back, blocks and add a leaf.

This will be rectified with a R.E. 4.5" lift via full leaf springs and proper front lift as well. I will be going 32x11.5x15 BF's M/T KM's or BF's A/T KO's... Probably the M/T's, they just look awesome.
