Default Teraflex Performance Leveling Kit and OME shocks

Hey All,
I am looking for a little lift and level out for my 2Dr hardtop 2010 JK and better springs to minimize any sagging from a planned PSC Brawler Lite and Warn M8000-S. I don't plan to ever run more than a 33" tire, so anything much over 2" of lift is going to be overkill. I do however want quality and improved ride and handling. I am wondering if anyone is running the Teraflex Performance Leveling Kit and OME shocks? If so, how do you like them? Any feedback, especially 2Dr pics with this set-up would be greatly appreciated. Also, if I am running stock 17" wheels and 32" BFG MTs will I need wheel spacers with this set-up?
Thanks in Advance!

I had this kit and you won't need spacers.

I'm running this set up with stock shocks. No wheel spacers. I love it. Thinking of putting Bilstein 5100's on some day. I don't plan on running larger tires so this set up works great for me! Hope this helps.

You have a great looking Jeep! Very much the look I am going for in terms of leveling it out with a little bit of lift. What size tires are you running? Thanks again for the reply.

I'm thinking of running 18 inch wheels with a 33 inch tire. I love the look of the teraflex 1.5 kit.

Cavjock22 & Kbennett2007 - Both your jeeps look great with the performace leveling kit! In my opinion they should come right off the assembly line with that stance. Are either of you running OME shocks with this kit? If so, how do you like them?
Thanks Again for the reply!

Thanks for the compliment!
I am running the OME rubicon shocks with no problems. The drive and handling is better than stock.

OME Rubicon shocks? You must mean OEM.....I am referring to the Old Man Emu shocks from ARB. Thanks again for the input.
