You could fit that setup with a Fabtech or Procomp lift with the adjustable coilovers to get you an additional 2" of lift. I'm not sure if the BDS lift comes with those. What kinda shocks does that lift come with.

you could throw a set of the bilsteins up front to gain an extra 2 inches or a spacer, but your gonna have more wear and tear up front.

you can add a leveling kit on top of the stock shock, or swap the stock shock for the bilsteins. it will give you more severe angles but you'll get 2 more inches up front, plus then you need to raise the rear too though, unless you wanna bullldog look. this applies if your lift kit just uses the stock shocks up front with a spacer, not a new shock assembly.

37's on a leveling kit post pics of that for sure.
