How much lift do you want??? What size Tires are you going to run??? Are you thinking of new bumpers and winch???

I personally would choose the 2.5" coils...it will give you just about 3" or more of lift (4 door) more with a 2 door from other threads I have read. Also, going with the 2.5" your JK will have a lower COG (center of Gravity) making it a little more stable drive. Also, going with a higher lift possibly means adding Control arms, Driveshaft (Auto or 2 door), brake line extensions, etc.

Just my 2cents.

The 3" coil from Fulltraction will get it done, but you may want to add some upper front control arms. It's a true 3" kit, not a 2.5 that measures over 3"
