Well maybe I’ll just scrap the idea all together. Just paid off my truck and it’s given me zero issues. I want to keep it for as long as possible at this point. I really wanted a lift for aesthetic purposes, as dumb as that may sound, but not at the sacrifice of a solid truck.

Than don't do it, and keep OEM size tires on it. It's negatively affecting the reliability and longevity of the truck. Whether or not that gets realized in the time you own it is anybodys guess, but you are spending money to expose yourself to that.

That's the only reason 90% of people have them and that's fine. If you keep factory offset wheels and don't go up in tire size significantly, you probably won't REALLY affect anything measurably. Increasing the offset is what really destroys front suspension and steering. Larger tires are just harder on the drive train since it's just more load.
