Default Let the fun begin!

so now that i've fixed all of the "presents" that the past owner had left me and then some, it's time to start having some fun.

What i'm looking to do is raise it 2" - 2.5" and put some more aggressive tires on it. For the 2", i'm debating between the Pro-comp 2.5" lift leaf pack and rearching my existing springs. Then i'd put two coil spacers in the front to level it up.

So aside from opinions on the above, what i'm really lookin for is tire info. The tires on it now are 235/70R16's. With the two inch lift i'm thinking that i could probably get 30's on it. So my questions are: what is the 2___/__R16 version of a 30" tire, and what brands/models do you guys recommend. the truck sees about 90% on road 10% off and when i do get it off the road its usually muddy feilds and such. I'm lookin for something not cheap, but not too pricey that will hold up well on the road and wont be garbage after 10k.

thanks for the help.

Jesse J.
