I like my fabtech 6 inch basic kit. Solid kit in my opinion and relatively cheap. 1500 new from local shops here in fl. I run it on my truck.

If thats too much do a leveling kit like 1-2.5'' $50-200

if you want to go 6" lift later, just get the 2.5" ccm leveling kit.

you need to think about the future when selecting wheels. Some lifts require a certain backspacing. If your gonna stick with leveled then it doesnt matter.
