Default 2006 level question

I have a 2006 XLT ext cab running on 265 michelins i just want to level for looks

Should i go with the 2in or 2.5 to level it perfectly? Dont tow that much so dont have to worry about sag and are these leveling kits decent? http://www.ebay.com/itm/231184861303

I leveled my 06 STX 4x4 last summer and it took a 2.5 to make it perfectly level. As far as those, I've never heard anything (good or bad) about Motofab, but I ordered a Daystar leveling kit from amazon and love it. It looks roughly the same as the ones from ebay but I couldn't tell you much more than that.

If you want to look at the kit I bought,
Amazon.com: Daystar KF09111BK Comfort Ride 2.5" Leveling Front Coil Spring Spacer Kit: Automotive Amazon.com: Daystar KF09111BK Comfort Ride 2.5" Leveling Front Coil Spring Spacer Kit: Automotive
try that.

put a 2.5" CCM on my buddies '06 and he's running 265/70/17 at the moment. Tire looks kinda small for my liking but not terrible.

I have 2 motifs leveling kits. Love both of them. First was a 3"...too much squat in the back so I ordered a 2.5". Perfect.

All spring makes a great level kit. I would go 2" and keep 1/2" of rake in case you haul or tow.
