I did the Carli 2.5" Backcountry with AAPs, Airlift airbags and 37" Ridge Grapplers. The only thing I might do differently next time is to go with the Progressive leaf springs over the AAPs. The truck tows and drives great on the smooth highways in Texas, but can be a little jarring over RR tracks and other rough surfaces when empty. I added the Sulastic shackles last week to soften the empty ride, but I have not towed with them or driven more than about 20 miles.
I considered going higher with the lift, but I tow a large TT and I am planning to get a 5th wheel in the coming year. Also, my wife is 5'-0" so I added a 6" drop step on her side to make it easier to get in and out. I am using a 7" drop on the lowest setting for my Blue Ox WDH when towing the TT.
