Default 6" BDS Lift - New Wheels - New Tires

Bought the truck about a month ago and just got everything done at once.

6" BDS
18" LRGs
35x12.5r18

truck still has stock gears (3.55 Limited Slip) but I haven't noticed any difference in power or a loss in mpg..? Is this normal? Or should i have it re-geared?

Oh, and I'm new to the forum so I'll be constantly updating as I make more mods to the truck.. Next up - Some badass bumpers & new side bars.. I'm sure I'll get more ideas from this site.

I have a 2.5" level up front and add a leaf in the rear, I could easily go with 34" maybe 35" without any issues on my 20x9 XD's. My truck has a rake to it and no issues with towing the boat. Saved over a grand and bought my wheels/tires off CL with less than 4000 miles on them. The ride is great and the tires are awesome, Coopers AT3's

Painted my cowlings with five coats of Krylon Fusion semi-gloss and replaced cowl ends. Love how the frwsh black looks with White Sand paint.

Running boards are on! So glad I went back to red. At certain angles they look a shade lighter, but from the side they are perfect (may be because they are freshly painted and clean and my truck is dirty as heck right now). The flares will go on this weekend when I get some double sided tape and push pins. Gotta remove the wheels/tires to do the job right. I will try and throw up a pic tomorrow.

Got some glass in my tire, so I threw 2 new ones on the rear. Not happy about it since I was holding out as long as possible to do all 4 and rims....
