A guy locally is selling 2018 raptor wheels and tires for basically the same price as new TA KO2 or Duratracs for my 20’s.
I already have Bilstein 5100’s, but only at the 1st from bottom slot(.75” level i think?) How high am i gunna need to go to clear the 315/70R17? Wheels are a 17" x 8.5" +34mm Offset. My stock wheels are 20"x8.5" +44mm
I ended up taking it to Discount Tire and they put new tires on the raptor takeoffs (they were bald) I bought and it rubbed on the rear of the wheel when turning. Next step is determining if they will fit with just a level.

I never did. I already have the Bilstein 5100’s but I ended up just getting another set 275/60R20 Duratracs since I didnt wanna take a huge hit on mpg’s.

Fox 2.5's do indeed result in the same raising (leveling) of the front end as 5100's.
Except they aren't "stepped" in the way the 5100's are, rather they are continously threaded throughout the range.
They are also quite a bit more expensive, as well as a much more robust damper.
I have Bilsteins on 1 2018 truck I drive often, and Fox 2.5's (with DSC) on my King Ranch.
You can tell the difference from the captains chair in seconds on anything but the smoothest tarmac. And even then there's a noticeable difference at high speeds and windy weather.
