Default Teraflex 2" leveling kit advice

I'm thinking about getting the Teraflex 2"leveling kit for my '14 JKU. Right now everything is stock but I have ordered some Spidertrax 1.5" wheel spacers in anticipation of putting a set of Goodyear Duratrac 285/70/r17 tires to go in stock sport wheels.

Is this a good lift to put on? I don't want to lift it too much. It's my daily driver and I don't think I will be going off-road but a few times each year. Is this a good lift? Are there better ones to get? Anyone with the same set up? I'd love to see pics of this lift.

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

I have 2"Tera flex leveling kit and I would highly recommend it. I am running it with higher number coils 18/59 and it actually make me feel like my 285/75/16 are too small. It gets rid of the factory rake and provides enough clearance for tires. I love the fact that I didn't have to get longer brake lines.

I had the TF spacer leveling kit and 285/70/17 tires. It gives just enough height increase to still have decent suspension geometry.

Thanks guys. They all look good and it sounds like a good endorsement. Does anyone have any regrets thinking they should've gone with a higher lift?
