I am getting my '07 NBS with the leveling kit on Monday.  I will post after a couple of days to let everyone know how I like it.  I think that it will make the trucks look much more aggresive which I like.  My dealer is doing it for me but I know that there are a lot of after-market kits for it also.

I got my 06 Z71 leveled yesterday. Looks pretty good. I used ReadyLift 2.5inch. Cost about 375 parts and labor.

I stayed with the stock sizes (265's on 18's).  I think that it looks good.  I will eventually probably go to a 285 but that will be way later down the road when I actually "need" new tires... or at least that is what I keep telling my wife. 

Sorry I haven't gotten around to posting pics.  I got the front windows tinted but don't like it so am going to get it redone(not dark enough).  Luckily I've got a buddy who is going to redo it each year for me before inspection time if need be.
