Default Which Leveling Kit?

I am ready to pull the trigger on a leveling kit, but can't make a decision on which one. The Kore is out as I am not about to spend $500 to level the front. I have been thinking of going with Hellbent Steel and then I saw another truck that was leveled with D25 springs. What are D25 springs? All I am looking for is a level stance, same ride quality. Then down the road I will replace shocks and probably go with 285 tires.

Thanks,

I am currently using the HELLBENT STEEL levelling kit, but used the DAYSTAR kit on my previous truck(05 RAM 2500 HEMI), both ride about the same. Both kits said that new shocks were not necessary so I did not replace them on the 05 and the shocks would hyperextend when going over large speedbumps or other bumps. This time I replaced them with PRO COMP ES 9000' for around $135 for a set of 4, with the new shock there is no hyperextension.

I went with the Hell Bent steel kit,, easy to follow instructions, good product. Look on E-Bay first for the kit, I found mine for alot cheaper there as opossed to the actual website. Which ever kit you decide to go with, make sure and have the front end alignment checked after the installation. It may not be off or off only a little,,, but this will save you money in the long run.
