This exactly !
A lot of guys with leveled trucks end up adding air bags to the back to level the truck when towing or hauling heavy loads.
Sounds like you are saving some $$ not doing all that

I did the 2" front lift kit. It still has a little rake in the front but still looks good.

Do you need to reset the offroad displays, short answer is no you do not. If you use them religiously while offroading, I am sure they could be reset, or the easier route would be to learn how the angles effect your vehicle and compare it to the reading. That being said, prior to my level I was playing with the offroad readouts and can honestly say they are not even remotely close to the road signs on the highway for hill grade. Who knows?

Mine has about a half inch rake. I never tow, and hardly put stuff in the back besides wood, furniture, etc. Mainly dumb stuff or stuff my wife wants, which could fall into the same category

Can anyone tell me if a 2wd with a 2in level will fit 275/70/18 with a +18 offset? I've looked around and it seems like some guys have been able to run a similar size but haven't mentioned any rub. I'm trying to avoid having to trim anything or cut crash bars.

How much do your tires stick out of the wheel well? Any front and rear shots to see?
