Hi All,
Just wanted to share some pictures of my Orange '08.  I added a 2.5" Lift/Leveling Kit for the front. Then I bought 20x9 Chrome Tuff T05 Wheels, along with some 275/60 Cooper Zeon LTZs. (33").  I had to trim some plastic up front because of rubbing.

There was a little trimming on the front mud flaps, and also in front of the tires on some plastic there. You'll see it once you get it all mounted up. It only took a few minutes to trim.  I still get some rubbing when pulling into or out of a parking spot, but it isn't bad.
 
I know for me I have the 285/70R17 on stock rims. I had the 2 inch wheel spacers but took them off. When they were on, I had rubbing issues bad but I cut the front plastic bumper piece with a jigsaw and just bent the plastic back. In the rear of the wheel well I am gonna maybe use a set of sheet metal sheers to trim the metal back there so it doesnt rub. I plan to swap to 35s at some point if I dont get a big lift this summer and do all kinds of stuff to my truck.
 
I just got a 2" front level and 1 inch rear kit for my 08 Lt and score a set of 305 55 20 dick cepek fun country 2s with 1000 miles on them for $350.  Will let you know how it goes stuffing them under it......lol
