    Default Lift help please!

    I have a stock 2008 regular cab silverado. i was looking at putting a 2" leveling kit on it and eventually 305/55/20 tires with obviously 20" rims... will this fit on a stock 2wd with the leveling kit or do i need a body or suspension lift too?

    Which would look better? i'm leaning towards a 3" body lift because they are cheaper. but i don't want it to look tacky. Opinions please. and Pictures would definitely help.

    thanks

    The key to Body lift is the gap guards. They are a must. I personnally dont think they look bad. I had one on my 04 with 33-17's. I like the Pro Comp 6" lift I have now more but its also about 4x the price.
