Default lift or lower

ok what i have is a 2001 blazer. it is a 4dr. 4x4 automatic. I have heard that these roll kind of easy so that is my only holdback on lifting it. If i lift it im only doing 2 inchs. if i lower it i want at least 4 in. can i get some feedback or suggestions on this??

Thank you

Lowering does not look gay. In fact it can look really good like in that picture. I say since you have 4x4 to lift it up though.

I looked into a lift for my Blazer. Youre going to spend about $600 for 2". Superlift and Rough Country make 2" lifts, Trailmaster makes a 5" lift, and Superlift makes a 6" lift. The 6" is about $1800 if I remember right. Belltech makes a 3/3 drop kit for 4wd, about $160 on stylinconcepts.com

Oh, and they dont roll that easily, I've done some crazy sh*t in my Blazer and only lifted a wheel once.

How about a suspension lowering kit with the tallest body pucks you can find. Then add dome killer 24" rims.
