I have been doing some research and contacted a few suspension companies in regards to this, if I mount 285/75R18 a lift or a leveling kit is not necessary. Thus, with 34.8" dia tires I will be able to run the stock setup without going through any of the caster or alignment headaches.

I run 285/75/18 Toyo AT2 Extreme and have no clearance issues. I also installed a Hammerhead front bumper with a 12,000 lbs rated Warn winch and do not experience the dreaded front end dive. However, I do have the 6000 lbs rated springs.

I am getting a winch plate gille gaurd combo in the front which I can image is half the weight of your bumper. You said you have 6000lb springs, what are the OE rated for?

The springs I have are OE. My truck has the camper package, and 6000 lb rated springs are included with said package - same as snowplow prep. Standard springs are rated 5800 lbs,. I believe.
