Ride, lift and tire size will depend on how much stiffness and lift you build into the spring pack.

Algranger slides in like Cramer on Seinfeild!
What? Who said my name? Oh hey its scoob!

I got your rears up front here





I wouldn't run stock rear packs up front, the engine adds a lot of weight. Put some AAL's in there before you install em. The ride is actually pretty nice. My buddy has 37's with his rears up front, just a matter of how much banging and trimming you wanna do. I'm planning on 35's
