Default Leveling Kit vs Lift Kit

I own a 1993 F150 4x4 extended cab. I'm getting new tires (33x10.50x15). I'm new to this whole body lift kits and leveling kits. Do I need to have my front raised for these tires? If so, should I go with a leveling or lift kit? I'm putting all terrain tires for some off roading and highway use. I'm also only looking like 2" maybe more. What do you recommend I do?

Leveling kit or F250 front coil springs will do same thing.

You'll only need about 2" to clear the front wells with 33's. F250 front coils off a 2wd are probably the most simple.
