go bigger now, or later? (lift)
Would it make more sense to get the Teraflex 2.5 Coil kit and add 1" spacers later if I think I'd like more height, or should I just go 3- 3.5 inch coil lift (like Rusty's) now? Only prob with Rusty's is I'd be paying an additional $88 in shipping. This is my first lift, so I want to get it right, but also want to stay pretty reasonable on upfront cost (don't mind adding adjustable control arms, etc down the line.) Its also hard to tell from photos on here what the lift will actually look like. Anyway... just been mulling several possibilities for several weeks now... kinda driving me crazy.

If it were me, I'd do the TF 2.5" coil lift with shocks now.
With a '12, when you lift it, you want the exhaust spacers from Teraflex also. Watch the video: http://www.teraflex.biz/jk-exhaust-s...passenger.html
Instead of spending money on control arms, trackbars, and a front driveshaft by going with a taller lift, I'd prioritize those funds towards engine skid, EVO exhaust skid, bumpers, winch, flat flares, etc.
