    Yea but the coils gave about 2” themselves. I think it ended up being around 2.5” total.

    Running 32s with a little over inch lift up front after the OME 880 coils sagged a bit. I'll be installing 881s this coming Friday. This is an old picture taken before they sagged. I took it right after buying a set of Method rims. Had BFGs on it then. Now I've got some Mickey Thompson ATZ P3s on it.

    32x11.5x15. When I bought those rims they slathered on a TON of Armor All on the tires. Can damn near see myself! Haha!

    I don't have them anymore, but I do seem to recall reading the actual height of them was 31.5. Also, there's an inch and half block in the rear.

    I think about 2.5". I haven't noticed any sagging yet.

    I just put 31x10.5x15 on mine. I have the same truck as you, no lift kit, and they look great. I don't have a picture with the new tires yet and the truck is getting worked on right now.
