Default Leveling kit questions for 07 NBS Silverado Z71 4x4

Hi,
I have the above vehicle, and I am looking to put a leveling kit on it to raise the front a bit. Ready lift makes a 2.25" leveling kit. Was looking for any opinions on this or any other kits that you guys have had experience with. Also, should I get the 3" blocks for the back as well. I pull a rather light boat, but sometimes haul semi large loads of furniture, etc. Nothing more than usual though. I figure I would but some 285/65 r18's on there. Will they fit okay?? Noticed the price of rough county and others much cheaper than the ready lift, and I was curious if there was a reason for this. Thanks in advance for all of your help.

Peace...and WHO DAT!!

I went with the ready lift because i heard a lot of good things about them and it works great. I have a 01 silverado z71 and before i had 285/75/16 bfg at's on it now i have 33x12.5x20 toyo open country mt with no rubbing problems at all without cutting.

And yes go with the 3 in. block...when pulling stuff with just the leveling kit our front end is higher and it looks retarded but with the block its leveled out. Without pulling anything it only sits maybe an in. higher than the front so it still gives you that raked looked
