Hey ms smokin,
have in mind that going higher most of the times involves a bunch of other things like new alignment, quicker worn out bushings...
Bigger tires pull on your chassis, more weight gives all involved steering parts a hard time to work.
Going higher is just the inital cost. It always has a rat tail on it.

Better check the price on Bushwhacker cut out flares (cut outs if you intend on using them to clear bigger tires). There's a reason that I bought a lift and not Bushwhacker cut outs. Standard fender flares aren't very wide (about 2 -3 inches) and won't help with tire clearance, meaning that you are going to need an 8 inch lift for 38/39s unless you use the cut outs.
