I look at a 2500 on my way down the street everyday, an '06 and it's front has a lot more rake than yours. Never seen a 2500 3rd Gen sit as level as your pic looks without a level kit.
The 37s are a little too stuffed for me, but I am off-road a good bit and need a bit of travel - but yours look good.
As for the 50 PSI, if they are "E" tires, then they are good. I have "D" tires (50 PSI MAX) and keep them at 40 PSI unless I air down for sloppy going...

thought i would put in my info on this issue since i use to be a asst mgr for discount tire co.. on a 35 1250 or a 37 1250 yes you can put it on a 7.5 wide wheel but its goin to ride bad due to it goin to bow up so only the middle of the tread is getting worn. we always recommended to run a 8.5 or 9 wide wheel at minimum...if your putting these tires on a 1500 run them at 35 or 40 psi....now if your running them on a 2500 you need to run them at 50 psi if they are a D2 rates tire now if there just your normal D tire them run them at 60 or 65 psi..trust me on this if you run pressures to low youll wear the tires out a heck of a lot quicker and lose mpg plus youll notice it riding like poo.
