Survey of 2.5" Leveling kits

Everybody with a 2.5" Leveling kit, post:
1. What brand
2. How many miles w/ leveling kit
3. Size tires
4. Any problems

There has been much debate about the 2" vs. the 2.5" and the problems that the 2.5" may have. We haven't seen any recent posts about problems with either. Some of you have got to be getting quite a few miles on your trucks. I am starting to get my mods piled up for the arrival of the new truck and I am undecided on which A.S. to get. Even if you know someone that has a 2.5" and has had problems, let us know.
Hopefully this will be a usefull thread for others in the future.
