I have an 06 SD extended cab with short bed I put a 6 inch procomp lift and 35 inch pirelli tires and it drives better now than before I lifted it. I did not use any shims.

Pulled the trigger on a 4" BDS front and rear leaf (no blocks) 35/12.5/20 Toyo MT on ProComp Xtreme Alloys
I am extremely pleased with the outcome. Im glad I did not go higher.

You can use the RPM Calculator (link) below to determine which gears you need. Depending on the transmission you have in the truck, the "Transmission High Gear Ratio" is as follows:

6-Speed Manual - .72
4R100 Automatic - .71
Torqshift Automatic - .71

RPM Calculator

this is what i think seems to work out fairly well, for every inch in diameter u add go .10 lower in gear ratio. ex if u have 31 inch tires stock with 3.73 ratio and u go to 35 inch tires to get rpms close u would go with say 4.10 gears. if anyone doesnt think this is fairly accurate let me know
