Need some suspension help

I have a 2016 Limited and within a week or so I'll have added skids, sliders, hidden winch mount w/ Warn ZEON 10-s, Ecotechne roof rack. Currently I have a 1" spacer lift on the front and have been very happy with XREAS however I'm concerned the additional weight (especially on the front) will be too much for the factory suspension to handle. I'm pretty much decided on the 5100s but unclear on which springs to go with and would appreciate some input. I do camp and off road occasionally and would like to maintain as much on road manners as possible. I would not go over a 2" lift so I don't think UCAs are needed and would like thoughts on which springs? Thanks in advance...

If you're comfortable just having spacers, then you can just upgrade the springs for an economic approach... 650# should be fine.

If you remove XREAS, consider getting something a bit more... substantial... than 5100s, assuming you like XREAS due to its ride comfort. You're looking about $1500-2500+ in parts to fully remove and replace with quality components.

Again, all depends on what you're looking for.
 
I went with BudBuilt sliders and hidden winch mount at the time because he was one of the few that doesn't require XREAS removal. I already have the Shrockworks TE trim and initially I wasn't planning on doing anything with the suspension at this time. Thanks for the input guys, I might switch to 6112's in the front.

Update: Went with 6112's for the front and the 5100's for the rear, thanks for the input! Also want to plug for the guys at TAP, super friendly and knowledgeable guys!
