With 10" of lift, 34's will look too small

it'll look like a roller skate

Re: whats the best hight to lift my truck?

35s is the way to go, maybe 37s .... if you go any bigger you better have some performance mods and a stout tranny along with upgraded brakes .... I would recommend ditching the body lift and just going with a 6-8 inch true lift ....

4" lift on 35s .....
