With factory 20" wheels I have 285/65R20 that are very close to the same size as 35X11.5R20. RC's have an advantage over SCREW in that they don't have front crash bars.

With stock 17" rims you can do 35x12.5 with a spacer. I used raptor rims with 34 offset and they fit fine, no spacer
edit. I forgot, stock 17 rims are to skinny to safely go 12.5wide..some have done it by reputable shop won't mount them

Anyone swapped the rear shocks for something and noticed improvement in the bed hopping/ride quality? I'm thinking bilstein 5100's should do the trick.

Bilstein is great compared to stock. Last 3 trucks used fox, Halo and now Bilstein..next truck will be Halo. With the front coilovers truck handled like a race car, no body roll at all.

2 inch level, 285-70-17's, 20% tint, bilstein 5100's (rear) going on tomorrow.

Just REALLY need to get better headlight bulbs. Night time wet roads felt very dangerous. Would love your opinions on some LED's that worked well for you. Cheers!

Great looking truck. Look at the Diode Dynamics SL1 LEDs. They cost a little more then the competition but work very well and they have great customer service.

Definitely.
I’ve had them on my truck since they first became available.
