Default Poll: To raise or lower?

Ok here is my truck:


Now should I raise it 2" in the front with coil spacers and buy some A/T tires and 20" rims? (keep in mind it is a 2WD)

Or should I lower it 2/4 and get some low profile tires on 20's?

Really depends on what you plan on using your truck for but I say Lower if going for looks.

just put some shackles on the back and get some 20's with a 285/50/20 or a 295/45/20. I think a 2/4 would look good with the 295/45's

Cool, thanks for the opinions! Now can I do a 2/4 and still keep my stock shocks or should I buy new ones?

you can do a 2/4 with stock shocks... if you are going to be towing that much weight and dont want to bottom out often while towing, I'd invest in some helper bags...
