I just purchased a 2006 Crew Cab Z71 4x4 Colorado. It is completely stock as of right now. I bought this truck to use as a hunting truck, and want to get some 32" tires underneath it soon. I plan on keeping the stock rims. What size lift do I need to accomplish this? I want to go the most affordable, yet durable route possible. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

You don't need SMAXX Keys necessarily. You can crank your torsion bars 2" and get the SMAXX Shackles (or other shackles that give 2"). Suspension Maxx - Chevrolet Colorado & GMC Canyon Forum
I raised mine 2" and was able to fit 32x11.50x15 on mine with minor rubbing when the wheel is turned at full lock.

I suppose I forgot to add that in the process of doing this, I would like to level the truck out too. Way too nose heavy right now in my opinion. Will what you guys are talking about also level the truck out? Sorry for all the stupid questions, but I've never lifted a truck before, and I want to get it right the first time. Can I get a part # or link for the keys & shackles?
