I went with the 2” Rough Country top spacer. If i did it again I would go with the Eibach pro truck kit or a 2.5” spacer + 1” rear block.

Where would you get the rear blocks that work with ARC? I have been considering that myself.

I did a great deal of research on the same question for my '15.  The 2" is ample in achieving the laden look. You want to find a balance between cost, potential premature wear and looks.  I concluded that a 1.5" level (upper or lower) would make enough visual change and have minimal negative impact on other suspension components.  Fortunately for me there was a delivery delay with my spacers which allowed me more time to read and think about this modification.  I now have the kit but its still in the box and will likely stay there.  My honest opinion to your question is to enjoy your beautiful new truck a little longer before making this alteration.  If your idea is to enhance the off-road prowess of your truck, then invest in a proper lift kit designed for this purpose.   You have a fabulous truck and the only improvement I'd make is a new set of Michelins or other premium highway tire.  This would truly enhance your truck with no negative potential.
