Did you get an alignment yet? Like the others' said you have to do that now since you leveled it.

I just had some 315/75/16 mastercraft courser mt's installed...and was surprised to find out there is a slight rubbing issue if you have to make a sharp turn. so my next question is wheel spacers. Are they a good idea, and do you guys think 1.25" is enough not to look rediculous?

I think they are a very bad idea. Just don't turn it that sharp. they just rub on the front sway bar.

Yeah, just look at the sway bar. You'll see a small shiny spot. That's where it's rubbing.
All of us running 35's on OEM wheels rub in that spot. It's no big deal.

And I agree with Skeet, I don't like spacers.

I agree. I would never use them. They are actually illegal in some states, so you have to check to make sure. You have to check them regularly to make sure the lug nuts are tight, and cheaper brands are known to crack. I just don't think they are safe. Something that you have to constantly have to check just doesn't sound good to me.
