Hi Wes,
No billet wheel, the ATS is supposed to totally eliminate surge all by itself and the billet wheel combo is reported as quite loud. The truck is already loud enough for me personally, one of my bling items is some sound deadening materials.

Is your labor to do them later a big deal? Do you have $50-75 to toss in now so you don’t have to go back?
I have dozens of GP’s that all test good, but were changed as PM. There is no sense in installing new injectors and dropping old GP’s in when the ONLY cost is the cost of the part.
But, if I was broke or just cheap (I’m probably both...), I would ohm them out and change as needed. The good ones could last another 100k miles.
on edit: I will reiterate what Sous said, only use Motorcraft glow plugs. You can shop around and find them cheaper.
