A few options for 8 inches

I have a 2wd extended cab truck... Its a 2004 ive been planning on getting a lift for it. I have researched it on here for a while and Fabtech seems to be the most popular lift but i was wondering

If you buy a basic 6" lift for around 1500 or 1600 bucks and put a 2 inch leveling kit in front and get 8 inches up front and get the fabtech 5'' blocks for the back and get it to set level for 8 inches of lift

vs

Buy the fabtech 6'' lift with the dirt logic coilovers and crank them up 2 inches for 8 inches and get something for the back like 5'' block and what else ?

Which would be the best route to go

Theoretically 8" up front and 5.5" out back is perfectly level... But 8" and 5"- nobody could tell the difference with their naked eye. Go fabtech with DL coils and 5" rear block. But I think rize sells an 6" rear block as well.

With a pro comp lift can you pit the 5'' fabtech block in the rear or would it have to be pro comp block ?
