Readylift SST 3.5” W/ Stock Wheels And Tires

[SPARKY150]

Has anyone installed a Readylift SST 3.5” leveling kit and kept stock wheels and tires? I’m wondering if I can do the leveling kit now and wait on wheels and tires. Pics would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

You can, but the wheels and tires would look like you missed leg week.

But if you could add a 285/65/20 AT tires to stock wheels, it'd fill up the gap and look better.

Yea. It would only be temporary. I will end up getting bigger wheels and tires down the road.

Well, Today is the day folks. I pulled the trigger and I am having my truck lifted. I am doing the 3.5” ReadyLift SST kit. I am having Les Schwab install it. I will be keeping my stock wheels and tires for now. I have attached some before pictures below. Once the truck is done I will be posting the after pics.

It is being installed right now as I am typing this. Should be done in a few hours if that.

Well, it’s all done and looks great. I ended up not doing the rear lift blocks. I did not want any rake. I prefer the look of it slightly lower in the rear anyways. After the lift it sits about .5” lower in the rear. Again, that’s without doing the rear lift blocks.

I have not done wheel and tires yet. I think the ride quality is fine. Tbh. It may be very slightly stiffer but it’s almost not noticeable. It may just be in my head lol.

Could you share a picture of your CV angles in the front?

Here you go. CV Angels with Readylift SST 3.5” lift. If you want better pics at a specific angle feel free to ask. 2 pics are both sides and one pic is with the wheel pegged. I have driven the truck for about 1500 ish miles with the lift now. I have used 4H and 4L for off-road/ snow use. I also have used 4A in sport mode. So far no issues or weird noises.

Many thanks for the pictures. Glad to see you are not having issues. I asked Readylift what their warranty is on these and found the below link which I find encouraging. Did they say anything to you? Did you register for this? I'd like to see they confirm its covered if there are issues.

Thank you for sharing that. I did not register that or even look into that tbh. I had les Schwab tire install the lift and do all of the work. Les Schwab backs all their work and would put something on if it was not good. Also les Schwab has some sort of warranty but I’m not sure on the details.

I’m also planning to have Les Schwab do my truck. Better price than other shops that I’ve found.

I guess it doesn’t hurt to get it from ReadyLift as well.
