Default Down side to leveling kit

Im about to buy a 2.5 or 3inch leveling kit. What are the downsides of a leveling kit. Do parts wear out faster? Do i need to upgrade to longer shocks?
Also what are the ups and downs of billit and poly kits?

Yes, specifically ball joints and CV joints. Is it significantly faster? Just depends on who you ask.

No

As long at the material is strong enough, there is very little difference between the variations.
