I put a 2wd spacer lift on this van a couple years ago and ran it with a factory aluminum wheels and little tires but I finally got around to putting new wheels and tires on it this week. I went with the Nitto Terra Grappler 265/75r16 with Method NV wheels. I'm glad I stuck with the 16 inch wheel cause the tall sidewall makes the tire look alot bigger. I also added a new rear black step bumper and painted the front to match. The van also has the 2 inch rear wheel spacers. Next I'm looking for the right roof rack that will get the paddleboard out of the van and up top and also to mount a 50 inch light bar above the windshield.

I can't recall what brand it was, maybe Daystar ? my friend owns has a 4wd shop and he just ordered a 2 inch spacer lift for it. We did have to to source longer bolts though.

Maybe a stupid question, but are you running stock shocks and if so does it ride ok?

We went with longer shocks, the lift was done almost 4 years ago and the van rides great. The front end was overhauled last week and the shocks were still good, but when it comes time to replace them I'll go with the Bilstein 5100 or a Fox setup.

The van looks good. I am wondering why you needed a wheel spacer in the rear. Was the track width not the same front and back?
