Default Anyone installed the AEV 2" spacer kit ?

I just bought my first JK a little over one month ago - 2013 2 door Rubicon and I was looking at the AEV 2" spacer kit and 33" BFG's . This is, for now my daily driver ( I do a lot a driving to and from clients houses ) so I'd like to retain close to stock drivability and gas mileage, I'm also working with a budget. Any feedback on the pros & cons would be greatly appreciated OIIIIIIIO

i cant decide this or just do the teraflex leveling kit and use the pucks for when i do a lift and add bumpers and gear and need a inch back from the weight that will be added.

I put a 2"/1.5" leveling kit with sway bar links on my brother-in-law's 08 JKU. He put 33" equivalents on stock wheels with spacers. He noticed about 1-2 mpg difference with all that. It definitely LOOKS better than the raked stock look and the stance is much stronger.

I have a 2010 jk. Put the 2" leveling kit on just to run my 33. It does the trick but with out bump stops you will rub that fender on a stiff bump on road or off.
