Leveling Kit Questions

I have an 07 F-150 XLT 4x2. Im looking to go up a few tire sizes. I would like to put a nice 285-70R 17 all terrian tire on it with a 2-2.5 leveling kit. Any sugguestions to tire brand/ leveling kit? Pic would be great..thanks for your help!

I just put a 2.5 Autospring leveling kit on my truck this weekend (4x4 though), and love it. They make a 2'' as well, you can pick the kit up from ebay brand new for around $70, quality is very nice. They make a powder coated version for about $10 more, thats what I went with. As far as tires go, I have always liked the BFGoodrich AT. You can follow the links below for pictures.

If you get the 2.5" your rear will sit lower than the front. I went with the 2" on my '06 2wd and it sits dead level. To me, it appears to be lower in the rear so I plan on adding a 1" block in the back. I have 285/65/18's which is basically the same size you are looking at but on a 17" rim. You can view more pics in my gallery.

I sit dead level with an 08 SCrew XLT with the AS 2" and 285/65R18's!
