    unless theres something crazy goin on in your picture its definitely got a leveling kit on it. ive heard that theres some way to adjust the shocks on 04-08s to level it and that may be why the tire guy missed it. but idk how to do it. 33s or 35s would look killer. as for it dying...what they said :jester:

    Just about decided to go with a 305/70, but I can't find anything other that Dick Cepek tires online. Anybody got any suggestions? Thanks again for all of the help.

    Ha, we'll have to see if the seafoam works first. I'm a firefighter too BTW.

    Thanks guys. I'm gonna get some seafoam and give it a try. Where exactly is the vacuum line that I should pour it into, how much should go in there, and how much in the fuel tank? I'd like to go ahead and do it now since I just filled the truck up with gas today. Thanks again.

    1/3 in the gas tank 1/3 in the oil 1/3 in the vacuum line. Their website gives you the video on how to do it.

    oh mickey thompson tires as well, and I think even general tires run in that size as well.
