You could put a leveling kit on top of a 6" kit, but I wouldn't recommend it. If you want 8" of lift it's best to get the Rize or CST lift to start with.

The gas mileage difference is going to be so small between 6" + 35s and 8" + 37s. Get what you want!

I always tell people when trying to decide between lift height or rim size, go with the larger one. If you don't, you will regret it shortly.

to answer your question about adding cheap inches, yes you can add a body lift to a 6".
This can wind up being costly though, because 35"s can look odd with a body lift sometimes. and moving up in tire size is not cheap
