Default lift kit and tires 94 blazer

hello again, new member here, i’ve got a 1994 chevy s10 blazer 4x4 with a 4.3l vortec motor. i’ve been wanting to put a 2.5” lift on this but the only one i can find is from rough country. i’ve got a couple questions 1. i’ve heard rough country isn’t the most reliable does anyone have any past experience with that certain lift kit? 2. what size tires can i fit with only a 2.5” lift? and lastly 3. does the lift kit come with everything i need or will i need to buy seperate parts.

The RC kit I believe is complete. It comes with rear shackles, torsion bar keys, upper control atms with ball joints, and the the bracket(s) for relocating the IFS. It might also come with longer front and rear shocks.

For their 2.5" kit, 31x10.5 tires are standard.

As for reliability, the issue, as with all Blazers is that the upper ball joints will wear out along with the idler arm.
