Default Tire Size, please read...

So, I have 2003 1500 4X4. I'm going to lift it 6", then lower it 5", so I'll have about an inch of lift, can I fit some 40" mudders??

J/K, had to get you guys going... I'm sitting here at work trying to fly under the radar of 'the man' and wanted to post a few pics of the truck since I was so excited.

The pics are off of my phone, so they aren't very good quality, but I finally got a lot of the mods done for now:
-3" front leveling
-2" rear add-a-leafs
-Rough Country shocks
-20x10 Moto Metal 951's w/Mudd Grappler 35x12.50
-Volant Cold Air Intake

So now I need a programmer, some side bars so the woman can get in the truck, and hopefully a bull bar and running lights. Let me know what you think, I'll post some better pics when I get home and have a real camera...

Looks good.
Did the add-a-leafs make it a rough ride?

Did the add-a-leafs make it a rough ride?
Not really, in fact, I'd venture to say it made the ride better because it evened out the weight distribution. When I was riding around with just the front leveling kit I felt the truck was a bit jerky, but after the add-a-leafs it has about the same height difference as stock, so it put some of the weight back over the front end.

What fender flares do you have on it?
They are Xenon fender flares, I love em, I've had em on there for about 4 years, no paint/cracking/fitment issues ever.

Thanks for all the comments, here are a few more pics, outdoors with better lighting...
