Rough Country 1.5"

I'm looking at small lift options to better clear my 30x9.5 BFGs, and the Rough Country setup seems pretty decent for the price. It's a poly coil spacer, adjustable shackles, and RC 8000 shocks.

I know RC doesn't make the very best in suspension equipment, but I'm a college student and on a quite tight budget. Does anyone have any opinions on this setup? How lame are these shocks? Are the $25-upgrade "Nitro 9000" shocks worth it?

Thanks guys!

If you plan on towing things in the jeep then I would go with the 9000 otherwise just go 8000. For that small of a lift you might not even have to get new shocks
