Default Help with Wheels &??

hey you guys, im fixing to be buying some newer tires and adding my 2" level kit and i am thinking of buying some wheels and shocks with it as well. I just wanna make sure what the bolt pattern is for my truck, i know 8 lug but it is a 6.5 or something else? Im looking at getting a set of 35x12.50x17 Pro-comp xterrians a/t's and if i do i get a set of Pro-Comp ES3000 shocks with it from 4 wheels parts. Will these shocks work for my truck with these tires and front end lift???? Just wanting to make sure before i purchase all this stuff. thanks for the help.

Brainfart. I cant remember the bolt pattern off the top of my head. Just measure the studs directly across from each other. Center of one stud to outside of the other, IIRC. Havent measured for bolt patterns in awhile...

as for the shocks. Im not really familiar with them. Are they longer than the stock shocks? As long as they arent so long they bottom out or too short that they want to pull apart, at full flex range of the wheel up and down, they should be fine...

When you select the Pro-Comp ES3000 shocks as long as you select the front w/3 in lift. You should be fine.

I'm running Pro Comp A/T extremes 35 x 13.50 x 18 on American Racing Teflon Mojaves and love them. Had to do a little trimming on the trailing edge of front fenders. They fit nice. Now a need fender flares.
