4" or 6" that is the question!
I have a 4" kit ready to install on my 2011 boost but I am almost thinking I should be doing the 6" kit. I have 33s right now and do plan to move up in tire size down the road but it will be awhile. I know I can swap the components down the road but I guess I'm thinking why do the work twice. I'm running duratrac 33s on 18x9 wheels so I don't think it will look too bad for a year or so....
Any Thoughts?

If you don't have to worry about parking I say go the 6" but I think either lift looks good on these trucks. If I didn't have to worry about parking in garages that I would not be able to I'd go the 6"
But I do so my Bilsteins and 3" rear blocks work great for me

I recently debated the same decision. Then I drove by a dealership that had two 6 inch lifted trucks sitting out on the lot and I ordered the 6 inch the next day. They were not as high as I was thinking they would be and any shorter I would probably be regretting it.
As far as tires go, yeah it will probably look a little off for a while, but it won't be that bad and it's only temporary.
I'd say go 6.

Depending on what shocks you use you can upgrade for very little in the future lots of companies make 6" lift coil overs and longer rear shocks. All you would have to do is add or change your rear blocks. Which you can order separate. Heck stack the stock blocks under the 4" block and your set. Most 6" kits use a 5" block.
I was thinking of doing the same down the road. I'm rolling 32's on a 4" and it looks great.

Yea, gonna regret if you don't do a 6" (read with heavy sarcasm). Do what works for you. I did a 4" because I want to be able to park in parking garages and my garage at home, if needed. I go anywhere my buddies with 6" lift go and mine looks much better with 35"s. For me, a 6" doesn't look great with smaller than 37"s and I just don't want to double up or even triple up with the cost of not only bigger tires, but having to buy new rims. That was another reason I went with the 4", so I could stick with stock rims.
