Default Lifting 98 4dr 4x4

Okay, So I've got a 98 Blazer 4x4. I'm thinking about getting GT Grabber AT2's with Pro Comp's Series 52 Flat Black. I plan on cranking the Torsion bars, and getting 2" shackles. If I do both of those, Can I add a 2" body lift?? How would that look? Can anyone can help me out with tire and rim sizes? Also how about the rubbing issues?

RC is Rough Country. It's a brand name. If I'm not mistaken he just removed his airdam on his bumper (cut it off)?

I removed the lower valence when it was stock because it looked better that way IMO.

Oh, and what is the difference between a 97 and a 98 2" body lift? It makes a huge difference in the budget!

The valence has small bolts that run the length of it on the inside you have to take out.
