Default Lifted Trucks?

Any of you guys have lifted trucks? I see a lot of speed trucks, but does anyone here run a 6" or higher kit?

my '01 Z71, 9 inch's of lift with 35x12.50's left over from just the 6 inch i had a few months ago. Gonna keep it modest with 36x14.50's because i dont wanna screw up my gear ratio....only 4.56's right now. When i do a SFA swap and change to 5.13's i'll go 12" of lift and 38x15.50's.

I had a 6" kit on my GMC, but sold that truck to get a diesel dually. Click on the GMC photo in my signature.

1BADHD, how you liking them STS's? When my BFG's get some more wear on em im gonna go with some 36x14.50's. They pretty quiet and ride good? My BFG's are slightly noisey and bouncey after they get a little wear on em. I'm thinking about going with a 37X14.50 Parnelli Jones dirt grip, but i figure i would be in the same boat as the BFG's, slinging quarter sized peices of gravel up on my paint when they get stuck in the lugs. I wish they made the 38" STS narrower than a 15.50 for a 16 inch rim. I could easily clear 38's, but not at that width. I'd have to trim the fenders behind the front tires to keep it from rippin em off. Plus, my truck would probably be a dog with 38's and the 4.56's. Its only slightly faster than stock with just the 35's, i could only imagine loosing 3/10th's off my gear ratio with 38's

STS's are doing good. They have about 10 k on them and wearing very very well. Nice hummm going down the road.

I have a 6" lift and 35" Tires. Love the look and the ride of the RCD. It retained almost all of the stock ride.
