Lift your truck and you don’t get rubbing with many bigger/wider tires - unless you actually drive over a bump... still working on that one...

I have the 6112 on 4 and 2 with P metric Wildpeaks in 265 70 and the ride is absolutely plush. Better than stock on and offroad. The shock valving is too soft for real high speeds over really rough terrain but speeds are still 2-3 times higher than stock on rough stuff (think 15 instead of 5-7 on high clearance trails not trophy truck dirt roads).
If you are using LT tires, the 6112s should be able to absorb them within reason but the ride won't be as plush.
I am curious about your rear shocks though. I went with Icon 2.0. Curious if you will like the ride with 5160. Let us know! The ride in the rear (when empty) cannot be as plush as the front by definition.
LIFT and tires: lift does nothing for you on IFS. You still need to clear room in the wheel well unless the room is already there. I could fit 1" bigger tire on my Outback but not on the 4R which is funny.
