Wow. That looks great.

How is clearance with the lift/tires? I've been talking to Viking off road and they say that 34" tires should be fine with a 2.5" lift but from the looks of your truck clearance is at a premium with the 4" lift.

Wow those 16 inch wheels make those tires look massive, but I see they're around 35 inch diameter which seems to be about the most we can do without spending crazy money on a lift. With the 50mm wheel spacers, she'll look even better with wider fender flares - which will also help keep the stone and rock chips to a minimum (as well as clean up)!

Front wheel









Rear wheel




MInd that Nitto Ridge Grappler 315 75 16 is more like 34 inch tire when installed.
I could also fit 37 inch tires with no rubbing for street driving but not for off roading.
Not sure if 40~50mm spring spacers (It will be 140~150mm lift in total) can make it work.

Next step is to install Letech winch mount with 2016-2018 G550 front bumper and wide fender flares.
All have been ordered and waiting...

Yes, that is correct.

I had three options to choose for the lift spring when I purchased suspension lift kit and I got 100mm.

No it is not.

I got 4" suspension lift without portal kits.

Portal kits will add an extra 5.5" ~ 6" in height.

Where do you get your aftermarket stuff and from who? I currently own a GX460 built/lifted but I'm wanting a W460 or W463, preferably a W460 diesel and do a turbo motor swap, but I enjoy like newer creature comforts and airbags, etc. What year is your truck, looks great!
