35/11.5R20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers with a 2" RC level on stock sport 20's. No rub.

Looks awesome! How is the ride with the pucks compared to stock? I am doing similar setup next week.

Currently sitting in a bar waiting to get tires on and alignment but it seems that it is slightly more rough than stock not much but has more “truck like” feel. I did the ready lift 2.0 inch.

For the life of me, I don't see how they load those trucks without causing damage to every one of them.
I've seen them load Subaru's on trucks before and it's a science. The guys who load them do it very carefully. It's interesting to watch them.

Thanks! I have a '21 Lariat FX4 and will also be getting the ReadyLift 2" level. Im also putting on 285/65/20 KO2s at the same time (plus alignment) and I'm hoping the ride quality doesn't change too much.

Yeah I think the tires will change the ride more than anything level didn’t do much but maybe felt small pot holes a little more.

Firestone destination XT 275/70 R18. Tires ride nice but definitely a little stiffer and a little noisier than the stockies but not over the top in any way and still provides a very comfortable ride. Also has the 2021+ rough country 2 inch level that I’m also pleased with. For the fire/gravel roads that will be driven the coil over kits would be nice but most likely not necessary especially for 400$ installed its 100% better than what a coil over would cost when 80-90% of driving will be on road.

I swapped my stock Lariat springs/struts out for OEM stock Tremor spring/struts.
I gained 3/4" or slightly more and the 33.2" Generals (1/2" or so) and overall gained approx 1.25" in front and left in the Lariat rear blocks, I didnt use the Tremor 2" blocks, was a but much I thought. This is a NON-FX4 truck, not that makes much difference, although the Tremor suspension helped the ride for my taste.
What kind of difference did the Tremor suspension help with?

The Lariat suspension/springs seem overly bouncy and leans in turns. Some dont mind it, but i didnt care for it. I purchased a set of Tremor wheel/tire take offs and the suspension was a bonus. I was planning on doing a level kit and decided to try this route being it was overly cheap and I wasnt wanting much of a lift in height, so here we are now. I notice a stiffer spring rate and less lean in turns. I probably should have just added in some other brand struts to that spring but I am not sure what I will eventually end up doing but for now this is good enough, better then stock Lariat.

I honestly cannot tell a difference. It rides way better than the 21 2.7 I had. That front end never felt planted.

Added 285/45/22 Nitto Recon Grapplers to my stock Limited 22' wheels. Stock size was 275/50/22. Looked for a 285/50 or 285/55 but they only came in "LT" variety and wanted to keep the rotating weight down. Might look into 2'' ready lift level. My current ride with these tires is great so I'm a little concerned about adding the level kit. This is my first truck, and there always seems like there is just "one more thing" to do to it!
