Perfect proportions. That is exactly what I want to do. Well done! And I hear you about the research that goes into a lift/wheels/tires decision.
I am on this forum trying to learn about my soon-to-be purchased RR. I am wondering about how the ride height recalibration compensates for a change...

I’m wondering if anyone has considered carrying the spare in the bed, LOCKED to either the front bulkhead wall (if you have a topper/canopy/cap) or laying flat on the bed floor (with a topper or tonneau cover). Would be a little more secure and there would be no worries about road grime gumming...
OP (“embedded rock”) asks a great question that I had also been wondering about. None of the replies addressed it. Does anyone know the answer?
