Worth it.

Do you think that a body lift is worth it. Yes it is for 200 bucks. Thats dirt cheap. Until you add in 200 in steelies and 600 in 33s. 1000 bucks max. I am a kid I make great money and can afford about anything you through at me. I would do some wheeling. And would run ATs or MTs.

Shop around for tires and rims. I am sure you cold find someone with a decent set for a cheaper price.

Once you find a good set of rims and tires get the BL

No difference, summit sells a lot of name brand stuff just with their name on it.

I would say it's worth it if you actually plan on doing some off roading and don't have other things that the money should be spent on.

Your a idiot, I'm not going to argue with you about this because it doesn't even matter what you think.
