Rancho 4" lift

The 4" Rancho lift seems to be pretty high quality, as well pretty revered on forums. My only questions are: how obvious is it that the front tires stick out further than the back, what is the biggest size tire I can fit on oem wheels (looking at 33"-35" toyo mt), and lastly, is it worth the money? I was quoted $2500 installed (RS500 shocks) at my local 4 wheel parts.
Thanks, I'm new to forums so let me know if anything is wrong or anything.
Lastly, my truck is a 2008 Silverado LTZ Z71 4WD

If you are dead set on a Rancho 4" lift, but all means, get it, but....for $2500 you can get like 5 different 6" lift kits that are more in tune with your newer model Chevy. IMO, Rancho lifts haven't been a quality lift system for a Chevy since the good ol' solid axle. Rancho should be saviored by the Jeep owners. For the money, I would venture toward a BDS, Zone, Pro-Comp (not a huge fan, but you are looking at Rancho so I figure you are not worried about ride comfort), Superlift, Ready-Lift, and Rough Country.

Have you rode in a NNBS with the Rancho kit??? A one piece sub frame and top notch welds are hard to top along with prob the best powder coating on the lift kit market. And to compare a 6" BDS with the 4" Rancho is a joke. The BDS is just there 4" with a level kit where the Rancho dropps the LCA's a full 5.5" and the angles are perfectly flat. Just my $0.02
