Default 2.5 leveling spacers or leveling struts?

Hey yall, 2005 F150 Lariat SCrew. Just put in a brand spankin new motor, 275/75r18 Grappler G2s.... so 2.5 is A) All I can afford with out catching hell from the wife. B) Brand new tires that maybe to small for a 4". I was thinking just strut spacers so maybe in a couple years go with a 4" with new lifted Struts. It's 60 for the spacers and 130 for the Struts, looking at Rough Country.

After all the work, I'm gonna be keeping this truck for a long time. 138,000 miles on the truck and 7,000 on the new motor

Bilstein 5100 set to two inch level with moog HD coil springs. It's a great riding set up.

Autospring leveling kit was a quality piece when I installed mine and gave the advertised lift.

I went with Autospring kit as well back in the day when I did mine. Now, I'd go with the Bilstein 5100 route because new shocks are springs are probably in order anytime now.
