Depends.
1. It will not destroy your truck. It is a easy, beginner way to get into off roading. It will give you a decent lift to put some larger tires on. It will not stress your stock components, when used for light trails, overly. It will subject them to greater than normal stress, but offroading does that to begin with.
2. The spacer lift is cheap enough that it is a nice place to start, budget wise. Many people start here to see if they like offroading or will actually use it as such. Before you go out and spend a ton of money on a full suspension upgrade, feel it out.
3. A full out suspension upgrade, with new front end components designed for off road experience will always be a "better" off road capable machine.... but many consider the spacer to be the entry level.
Finally. If you ONLY want a nice lift and bigger tires, then yea. Spacer will work fine. I haven't seen anything that suggest in normal, onroad driving, they day star reduces stock components longevity.
I hope that helps.

The DS 2.5/1.5 is a good kit easy to install rides good and its cheap I did it on my 03 Limited basically just waiting untill my xreas blows up then I will do a full OME kit like I had on my Trail Edtion. For the occasional off roader the spacer kit is the way to go. The only thing I did in addition to my spacer kit was the sway bar reloacte kit from toytec
