Default 3/4 drop on, Lift kit gone!!

Just got done installing the drop and eagle 219's (Thanks Parish) on the truck. It is a 4wd truck with the rear blocks removed and 2" shackles in back. The front is lowered with belltech spindles and TB decracked an 1". Here are some before and after pics. The truck is very dirty and the drop is like a 10" drop . The lift was a 6" skyjacker with 315/75/16 wheels and tires. Let me know what you guys think.

They are 305/45/18. This are parish's old wheels/tires. I think im going to get a bigger tire under there. What size do you suggest? Remember the rims are 18x10 or 18x9.5.
