Do you think i should take the RC 2,5" coil spacers out and get the RC 2,5" full coils insted?
I've got the RC performance shocks, so the coils will cost me $180.
What do you think?

Up to you, but I doubt it would be worth it.....the ride may be a little more harsh than it is now, but you may gain slightly better articulation. The springs themselves are really not much longer than stock when side by side....so I'm not too sure about the added articulation.

Depends on what type of trails you do.

Depends on the kind of ride and future MODS you are looking for. I'd go for coils - they allow for better articulation and "future proof" your investment. Though, if you do go for coils, you might like the ride of the Teraflex or OME coils better than RC.

If you upgrade to heavier accessories like front bumper, winch, rear bumper, etc., you would want coils. Upgrading to coils (to do it right) you will want front and rear adjustable trackbars, control arms, swaybar, possible breakline extender, longer shocks, and rear spring retainers just because sh*t happens.
