I have been looking around at leveling kits for my 2010 and the Rough Country one seems to be the simplest and easiest to install since you do not have to compress your coil springs.My only reservation is that it has no provision to drop the transfer case to compensate for the increase in suspension angle.I wonder if they sell these spacers separately.

Rough Country all the way.
Tires though for a mild off-road tread but great on-road all weather tires i would have to go with the Firestone Destinations A/T... For a more aggressive off-road go BFGR A/Ts but they do kind of suck in the snow.

I forgot to mention I have Goodyear Durtracs. I do a lot of highway driving and I love them so far.
