Have an odd idea and need advice

[ghosterbuck]

Ok guys, I have a 97 k1500 with some. 6" lift of unknown brand. Has 3" blocks out back and flat cv angles. I wanna know could I keep it at around 4" up front and run 2500 leaves with something like a 1" block to get about an inch of Cali and run 33/1250s on x10s with no issues? I want 33s for the cost and mileage. Before you say it, yes I'm geared (1900-2000 rpm at 70 on 35s). Would I be safe?

Also, I'm on 255's now and it looks lame. I just don't wanna look tiny still or look too stuffed. Picture cranked with a bl on 33/1250 thornturds (not my choice but that's the ideal look) if I could I'd just sell my lift and crank it.

A 4" lift with 33s is plenty, if not overkill. I'm actively looking for a set of 33x12.5x15s to replace my 285/75/16s, and I've got my 2500 cranked a bit with a 2.5" block out back... I do have a bit of rake so your listed parts should put you fine. Consider using a zero rate out back instead of a lift block, or use your current spring pack with an AAL instead.

So you think it'll have a nice rake to it and they not look too small?

base it off my sig pic.. personal taste will determine the rest.

How much different are 285's and 33's? And what do you have in the back for lift?

minimally. 2.5" block.

i have 33x13.5s on mine (325/60/18) on lower than 3" of lift. I dont rub anywhere and i think it looks perfect.

Yours is exactly what I want, but I have the lift so I'm like 4" higher up front.

more like 2-3.. and you could either decrank, or run 35s instead.
