Nice. Are you planning on installing new tires? Wheels?

Two weeks ago, I had the Rough Country 2-inch strut lift kit installed on my 2023 XLT EB AWD. I have the Black Appearance Package with the 18-inch wheels. The on-road all-terrain tire options for 18-inch wheels are limited. Thus, I purchased 17-inch wheels with 245/70-17 tires from Tire Rack. They are supposed to be installed by Tire Rack's mobile service tomorrow morning.

I will post after pictures tomorrow.

Excellent choice, highly recommend. It's a set of four lift springs, used with the factory struts. Runs great 💯

I love those FX4 wheels, those are the best ones in my opinion even better than my Tremors. Lift looks great.

Looks great. These springs give you 1 1/2" lift? Are they guaranteed to not cause suspension problems?
They're 2" front, and 1" rear. So far working great. Its made to be used with factory shocks.

Yes, new tires coming soon. Probably going with 245/70/R17.

Looks great! Did you have a level kit on it before you installed the spring lift? The 'before' pic looks like the truck has a more level stance than stock.

It looks like that because is a 2" lift up front and 1" lift on the rear, making it look pretty much even.

Its just the lighting, with the shadow in the back it makes the fender gap less apparent.

I'm also a huge fan of those wheels on the OP's truck. However, I don't think you can get them unless you also get the 4K package(?). I know I tried getting those wheels when I upgraded my order to include the FX4 package and my sales guy entering the order couldn’t make it happen.

When I ordered in 22 you could, but I was getting 4k anyways. Honestly for the price and what it gets you and what that is worth in resale when the value of the vehicle has dropped significantly, having 4k on the options list a decade from now will probably still be worth the same money. That's without mentioning it's adding cooling ability to a turbo drivetrain. Always a good idea.

Of course I threw all that out the window for a Tremor, but if I ever develop issues and need replacement parts I will just retrofit and trim my plastic bumper to make it all work with the 4k bits. And if I see those wheels on Craigslist I'm buying em!
