Wait, it was 2.5" on the site (I think) weren't we talking about a 4-5 inch lift kit?

Yeah I assume they are coming out with two separate kits but the 4" one isn't out yet if I read it right.

Oh definitely. I’ll be picking one of these up in the spring before I get new tires. I was thinking about a 4-5, but for what I do, it doesn’t make any sense, haha.

It's definately worth it, it's a grand less and you only sacrifice what 1"?

1.5-2.5. My truck is a daily driver and is already taller than other Blazers (thank you ZR2 package) so 5 inches taller and half of my friends wouldn't be able to get in the thing.

Plus, with a 2.5" lift, I can still get reasonable prices on 32-33" tires.

I'm 6'3 and can get in and out of the ZR2 just fine, but most of my friends are under 6' and struggle a little bit. Add 4-5" to that and they'd have to take a running start or use a stepladder, haha. Granted, I plan on adding step bars to help them a little bit, but still.
