Level kit and tire question

I recently had an autospring spacer kit installed in my truck. The only problem that I was not aware of is that I had purchased the spacers that gave my truck the 2.5" front end lift as opposed to the one that would give me the 2" lift. Short of having the mechanic remove the 2.5" and replace with a 2" and pay another $250 for a total of $500 what do you all suggest.? The truck sits a 1/2" higher in the front then in the back. Is there a rear 1/2" inch spacer for the leaf springs?

What is the biggest tire that the original Lariat wheels will take and does anyone have any pics. The stock wheels are 18x7.5.

I would recommend looking for a 1 inch for the rear. doubtful there is a 1/2 inch for the rear, but I don't think 1/2 difference between the front and rear is all that bad. if the front is higher, that may look a little doofy though.

Gotta agree with Carnivore on that one. But I'm still trying to find "doofy" in the dictionary. Thanks for the new word!
