2" or 2.5" level

i want to make my truck bigger and ive been thinking that a 2.5" leveling kit is the way to go. Will this look ok on my truck or is a 2" kit a better option. Which of these will look better? any pics are also appreciated

This is mine with 2.5" AutoSpring. Some lift heights vary by manufacturer. May also want to search, there are a couple threads dedicated to leveled trucks.

2" AS with their 3" block, The 2.5" might have looked better but it has some rack when I pull something.

No trimming. I have some rub on the UCA at full lock. The specs on these nittos are like 12.8" wide, and you have the side lugs...which make the rub a little more so, but it is nothing I worry about
