Mine is 37 up front and 38 in rear with 265s. I know when I crank mine up to 38 up front everyone said my angles sucked. You are cranked 1.5 higher. Your angles must really be bad.

CV angles looked bad on mine. I think the 295/75r16s are taller but skinner then 305/70r16s.

Do you have fender flair's on yours?? That will make a measuring difference..

Didn't think about that. I'll have to check how much lower they hang down. I thought they came straight out at the bottom.

I'm at 38 in the front with 265s and I wouldn't go any higher. I've got about 1/2" between the bump stop and UCA.

In the first leveled pic, his LCAs look a lot steeper than mine.
