Also on a budget. Went with Cornfed spacers front and rear. Easy install. Don't even take apart the front strut. They ride great since it is stock springs. Aligned after install and everything is peachy. I went 2". Shipped to me in 3 days.

Scrap the spacers.

Go with the 99 coils or an OME coil in front on an adjustable clip Bilstein 5100. You could also stay with the stock coil on the Bilstein Adjs.

For the back go with the OME 890 or 891 and no spacer again. And the Bilsteins. (or the OME 861 for more height)

Going with all coils and no spacer will ride and flex so much better than spacer lifts.

If you are looking at buying springs anyway, buy tall enough ones and don't use a spacer to get the height you want.

You can get 2.5" of lift. The ride is still good, but firmer than if you went with some OME coils.
