Just picked up a 2008 Explorer XLT (47000 miles). My 2000 Explorer fits 31" tires, so I would like to get a similar size tire for the 08.

I see there are two viable lift options for the 08, Truxxx and Rancho Quicklift.

I noticed while following the 08 that the rear passenger strut looks to be bad as there is a bit of wheel hop. If I have to replace one strut might as well do all of them, and the Loaded QuickLift looks like a good idea.

I cannot find a lot of posts from people that acually have a Quicklift. good/bad?

If the Rancho is a nogo what would be a good brand of replacement strut to go with?

Thanks
 






I fit 265/50R0 tires without lift and no rubbing. They are 30.5x11. Should be OK with 31x10.50 without rubbing and no lift.
 






I am running 265/65/18 = 31.6x10.4/18. Stock suspension.
