Aftermarket Wheels

I was debating 1.5 or 2.25. In the end, I decided 2.25 and mine is level. I am glad I went 2.25.

Do you feel like the truck is level with the icon adjustment? I was going back and forth debating on if the 2.25 (vs. your 1.75 perch) was going to give me a nose high look vs level look.

The 1.75" does leave a slight rake. Icon kit is adjustable so you can run it at 1.75" or 2.25". The truck below is at 1.75". And for anyone interested in VenomRex we just got a deeper discount. Prices are very competitive.

Thanks for your response and those are sweet looking wheels. Do you think going up to the 2.25 will make it look off (*too high?) - that above looks perfect and I am over thinking this.

I think 2.25" is dead level. If you want a slight rake the 1.75" might be ideal. Can't go wrong with either IMO

2.25 is dead level, love it. I'd go 2.25 over 1.75.

Awesome guys - Thank you for your help. My local 4wd parts was saying that its honestly better to change out the springs vs. collars as it would definitely ride smoother. I am going to use the collars unless I feel that it is an issue. I did see one or two guys post about it creaking a lot down the road.

I only know of Geiser and Eibach for springs. The Geiser is about 2.5" which puts you a little nose high and the Eibachs had some pretty bad reviews about harshness. If you want to keep a smoother ride at 2.25" with collars I like the Icon setup. Instead of 2.25" of preload it's a 1.75" preload collar and a .5" top spacer. There are other companies out there if you want to split it right down the middle and go with a 2" collar. I believe baja kits and Camburg are offering an even 2" collar. If you want to go with the Icon collar I have a few in stock.

As others have said, I feel like the 1.75 has a very slight rake once it settled (you can kind of tell from the side shot) but I honestly like that look. When I first put them on, I got a little worried because the 1.75 almost looked nose high! But then everything worked in good!

As far as ride, I do feel more stiffness in the front but I feel like some people on this forum blow up the fact that anything over 1.5 makes it sooo much more stiff. Yes you feel a difference, to me it feels better, and on normal street driving, you barely even notice. I cant speak for the 2.25 but I love where its at with the 1.75, ride and look. And down the road if I ever wanted to go up a little more, throw the little spacer on top of the strut!

Thanks for the input. I kinda agree that maybe the 1.75 is the right number but will see here soon.
