Suspension advice for 2011 Limited

I've been doing a lot of reading/learning on this topic and this forum has been incredible helpful.

I'm replacing the X-REAS system on my 2011 Limited with traditional shocks/struts (going with Bilstein 5100's for their adjustability). Planning to use original coils/springs.

In terms of lift options, I'd like to try to level the truck, although I don't mind a little forward rake, and I understand this can be a bit of a trial & error process. That being said, it seems like the most popular option is 1.75" lift in the front with a 1" spacer in the rear. I might try this to start, but I have a 3rd row seat in my Limited, so I'm wondering if I may need to go 1.5" lift in the rear.

Does anyone here have firsthand experience or knowledge of how the weight of 3rd row seats changes the equation?

Apologies if this has been covered. I searched before asking.

 

Yes I have first hand experience using stock springs + spacer on top the spring + Bilstien5100 with 3rd row. I didn't find a problem with 3rd row rear. However comfort wise with perfectly working XREAS vs Bilstien5100 it's day and night. Very close to instant regret. Why I got Ironman FCP in a very short time. Ironman FCP is not too bad but cannot compare to XREAS comfort.
