Actually I just have the 1.5 spring in the front at the moment... Like everything else so far that is subject to change. Just seeing it with the cab down on it makes me smile... I knew dropping it would be nice but I love it now.
I looked at all types of wheels and for me and the budget I settled for show wheels streeter (polish). I got them off the brown truck yesterday! I'm not a wheel specialist but man they are nice looking. Searching for tires and I ended up ordering Toyo 295/40 for the rear and 255/40 for the front.

Once I get it all together and see how things settle I may tweak on the springs some like you did.
