Default 2.5" 3" lift kits

Looking for just a few "s to make the my 08 K1500 look a little more like a truck on the OEM tires 18"rims stock size. looking at the ready lift kit. Mistake? I don't want to affect ride quality. just make it look a little less like a car with a bed. Coming from F250 Superduty diesel so this 1500 looks like a car. http://www.readylift.com/c-122-chevy...6-lug-225.aspx

Did the torsion keys change your ride quality any? Also did you go with the blocks in the back also? Can you run stock wheels with this.

yeah it changed it a little...most of it is the 10 ply tires. yeah I went with the blocks in the back. 3 in blocks and I'm sure you can but it'd look funny cause they're pretty small when you lift it
