Default Need advice on adding 2" spacer lift.

I am sure this has been asked a 1000 times, but I ordered the Superlift 2" spacer lift which gives you the front and rear pucks and also the bump stops. Now I was thinking I should have got new shocks to go along with this but I didn't. I am going to have the pucks installed tomorrow on my 2011 JK Sport 2 door and wanted to know what are the best shocks to use with this kit so I can have them installed at another time. Here is the kit I bought for reference.
Thanks.

Bilstein 5100's are the way to go.

The only other things you may want to look into if you're wheeling... Sway bar quick disconnects and brake line relocation brackets. If you don't leave paved roads, your all set with the shocks & spacers.

I ordered a 2 inch kit from Rancho with their RS9000XL shocks. Would recommend giving those a look.
