I will be doing some light to moderate towing(just a 14' fishing boat or a couple of atv's) Not sure if the OME's will lift it enough, or if the RC Leaf's will take the towing? Any input?

Im looking at this $900 6.5" Rough Country Lift.
Seems like a great deal.
Or this $1250 6.5" Rough Country Lift X Series Long Arm
What is the difference between the Kits?
I want this look.
Ill be 4X4in, mostly trails, mud, no serious rock climbing.
Are there any cons to this lift and what im trying to do?

My questions are do I need to replace the stock aluminum rims to a 15 inch wheel and go with a 31-10.50/15?

If I keep the 16 inch stock wheels, will running a 245-75/16 cause any rubbing?

And question 3 is, if I need a wheel with a different offset, what offset difference do I need?


Thanks guys and gals for any and all help on this matter.
