Any experience with these?

So I just installed some new tires on my truck and they are rubbing some so I was looking at doing a leveling kit on it. Anybody have experience with these?
Thanks,

I put them on my Excursion 3 years ago and have been happy with them. I didn't add all the leaves as I only needed 1 1/2" of height.

How does that work with the rear? Do you get a 2" lift in front and nothing in the rear?

Plenty of people say you should swap out the stock front springs to V code springs. I purchased a set new for $350, but found a used set in the junk yard for $180. Not only does this raise the front, it gives you more stability (less rocking side to side). I'm waiting for my Y Pipe to come in and do it all at once so I have no pictures to share. I'm also adding a RAS to the rear.
