Icon leveling kit

I have the Icon kit on my 2017 set at 2.25". Tried test fitting a 37 x 12.5 Nitto Ridge Grappler. It would not fit without cutting 2 to 4 inches so I left the 35" BFGs on for what its worth.

This was probably due to the backspacing and offset of the factory wheels.

Your truck looks good with the 2.25" RPG! Did you go with the adjustable RPG collar or the fixed one?

Also, I am considering the 36" Toyo MTs. Do you think you could fit a 1" bigger tire under yours without rubbing? Your gap looks big enough on the front and back, but I am not sure how tight they would be when compressing the suspension.

They are the fixed 2.25 ...I would think you could fit bigger than my toyo 35's ...seems to be a lot of room left .

how is the ride in the front with the rgp's? I realize it is stiffer but a lot? Is it more than you wished? Does it now feel out of balance with the rear?

thanks

Hi fx4 the rubbing I mention was when I test fitted the method nvs on the 37" nittos. That's why I went back with Bfgs didn't want to cut on my truck. I still went with the bronze nvs. Is that what you have can't really tell from the picture they look killer on a black truck imo.

Icon kit on my '17 @ 2.25". Test fit a 37x12.5 Ridge Grappler. Wouldn't fit without cutting 2-4" so I left the 35" BFG's on for what its worth.
