Hello Bryan, thanks for reaching out. If the total tongue weight of whatever you are hauling is around 650, I recommend going with the 1,000 lb SumoSprings part # SS65FR. This will give you the support and stability you are looking for without making the ride too rough. Just keep in mind these will not work with the Trail Boss or ZR2 models. Or on models with adaptive ride control.
You could use the 1,500 lb and they would give you support but you would be adding additional capacity that you don't need, so it would make the ride less comfortable compared to the 1,000.
