Default body lifts and leveling kits

Hey guys im new on here and im looking for some advice i have an 05 silverado z71 and would love to lift it 4 to 5 inches without hurting the truck because it only has 36,000 miles on it. this truck is hardly broke in yet and its my pride and joy and dont want to destroy it. Im putting a 2" rough country leveling kit in it which is 3" springs in front 1" block in back better kit ive been told. But I dont think this alone is gonna give me what im looking for also wanna make sure im gonna clear the 20" moto metal wheels with 33" bfg's. I thought of adding a 3" body lift to the mix and that would give me 5" total but i have been reading reviews on body lifts and alot of people tend to stear u away from going that route. Im not gonna be doing any hardcore 4X4ing with this truck this is mostly for looks and playing in the mud a little Any advice would be much appreciated?

Just get a real lift...levelin kit puts a lot of stress on the front end of your truck. I just installed a rough country 6" NTD lift and had a levelin kit. Much much better
