Then when you put your load in the bed it will ride lower in the rear than the front and will look worse IMO. It's so hard to find a happy medium between riding stinkbug (factory 2-3" higher in rear) and riding like you have airbags dumped in the rear when you are carrying 400 lbs or more.

I'm sure if you go with the 8"CST lift which handles frickin AWESOME for an 8" lift, then when you add the wider wheels/tires combo, your CG being higher will almost cancel with the wheelbase being wider and probably will have about the same stability. I wouldn't go whipping around turns too fast in any pickup truck, they aren't made for it and most don't have independent rear suspension. OOOOOH, another idea the for the '05 Titan.. independent rear suspension. (wont happen)
