Personally I like somthing inbetween the two. I like a little rake, but not jacked up too far.

I like your truck with the rake (#2). It stands out better to me than the all lowered one.

Higher if not in between the two. It's a truck NOT a '62 IMPALA low rider after all.

I like the lower shot best,keeps the flow of the truck even,raising it makes it look awkward to me.That truck looks good in yellow BTW.

Personaly, I like about 2" of air from the top of the tire to the bottom of the wheel arch. But even stock these trucks sit high in the back. If I had to choose I would choose the first one.

I would say something in between. It just has too much rake right there. Great looking truck by the way!
