Blocks are illegal and most people think there unsafe in the front. Unless you have a mudtruck with traction bars its not the brightest. The most I'd do upfront is 4 and that's only if you don't use it as a DD.

Truethfully, every truck will be a little different. You are only going up in the wheelwell 1-1/2" because the added height will be split in the middle.
One thing to watch for that can bite you, watch out and measure for any added width too.
Will you be mounting them on your current rims?
