Suspension suggestions wanted

Hello, I have a mint-condition '98 Tahoe 4X4 four-door which was babied as a suburban fire chief vehicle (99,000 miles) before I became its second owner. As it sits now on its stock suspension, it has a slightly nose-down attitude, which I'm guessing came about from the removal of the command cabinet in the rear. I already purchased a set of 16X8 custom aluminum rims since I hate the design of the stock ones, and I plan on upgrading the tires to one size bigger than stock (265/75R16) after this set is worn out. I will be installing a set of flares, and I am looking for any and all suggestions as to what type and brand of suspension lift kit I should go with to raise it a maximum of two inches and level it out. I don't want to sacrifice driveability or highway-speed stability, and want the mods to be very subtle. After driving a K5 Blazer for years, I am not used to the soft suspension and handling of the Tahoe, and how much more complicated it is making upgrades to these. Thanks for the help.

Re: Suspension suggestions wanted

if you dont want to sacrifice driveability or highway-speed stability, did you consider dropping the rear by 2 inches instead of raising the front by 2 inches? it will still eliminate the nose down look you're referring to. if you raise it, and add bigger tires then your driveability and stability will be affected.
