okay i have a 02 z71 tahoe. i have a brand new set of 275-65-20 cooper zeon ltz tires i want to put on it. the website for cooper says they are 34s i have the same style brand of tire in a 275-60-20 on it now with no leveling or spacers or anything. and it appears i could put the new ones on without leveling it. im gonna eventually level. should i just get level keys for the front and raise it a inch and if so should i just go to my local ford dealership and get them for f150? Also i have mechanical and bodyshop experience but i was wondering where a leveling kit instructions for doing the keys are? any help is much appreciated.

They tires will prob scrub in the front and you will need to crank the stock keys and hope they dont rub. Order keys from ebay and coil spacers, new longer shocks also. The coil spacers and shocks are easy to install with little skills but the keys require special tools.
