Sorry about the delay guys it's been a busy work week making up for having Monday off...
BCBrian- Thanks for the heads up I'll be sure to check the clearance between the C/O's and drive axles this weekend. And I'm just running the medium/normal weight springs since I don't have any extra weight from bumpers or skids. I'm not sure what the # rating on them is though I'll have to ask Greg when see him next. Thanks for the offer I'd love to come out and play in the dirt with you guys. Any idea when and where the next meet and wheel is going to be?
okkomatz- Thanks I'm really digging the way it looks and handles since the lift and definitely recommend this set up to others.
Aaron01- The last couple of tanks that I've checked show me being down 1-2 combined mpg but I also went up to a 285/17-17. It sucks but I was willing to take the hit in mpg's to get the look and performance I was after.
If anyone else has any questions feel free to ask...
If you dont mind me asking what did this run you? I have the pro comp 2.5" strut spacer and 1.5" shackles this appears to sit a little higher than mine. I definatly need the leaf spring upgrade(mine are almost flat). This is the look i want, and i hopefully can save a grand or more, than buying a fab tech 4"

I got a good deal on the lift because I was local and able to drive to the PRG shop instead of paying for shipping which I think most of the prices on the website include that. The normal price would be $2538 for what I got not including tax or any extra shipping. Definitely a good chunk of money but well worth it in my opinion and I am still very happy with how everything is working on my truck.
Bump for an update! How are you liking the tires? I've been tire searching yet again and these are in mind lately.

I'm definitely happy with these tires. They have no road noise/humming on the freeway and they have had excellent traction in the rainy winter and also flying down the dirt roads behind the lake by my town. Plus they had the best warranty of any all terrain tire that I could find (55k miles) and are more aggressive and better looking than the rest in my opinion.
I've also been really happy with the suspension so far too. It soaks up bumps indescribably well as I found out a couple of weeks ago when I was going out to the gun range after the storms had turned the dirt roads in to a giant washboard lol. I also no longer notice all the imperfections in the highways on my commute to work. The other thing that I'm really surprised with is how well the suspension handles at higher speeds. There is significantly less body roll and it handles turns and sharp maneuvering a lot better than I was expecting after being lifted three inches.
I'm going with the PRG mini-lift 2"/1.5" with bump stops and new cam bolts, I know which tires I want, but I'm having trouble picking the wheels I want.
Sorry about hi-jacking your thread.
I notice that a lot of guys are going with black or the machined look, but I want chrome wheels. I've looked thru the thread about wheels that fit our trucks. I just want some idea's on what chrome wheels would look good on a black truck.

No worries I know what it's like trying to do research on the forum and heck asking questions is why it's here. I know what you mean though there are a ton of people running running the black wheels which looks good on a lot of trucks and I actually almost went that way myself until the guy at America's Tires brought up a good point that it might look a little weird on my truck since mine came with the chrome package. I'm glad he mentioned that to me because I hadn't even thought about it lol. My truck is by no means a show truck and spends more time covered in dirt than it is clean but I really like the way the chrome wheels match the rest of the truck.
