Which is "better"; lifting my rav by 1 to 2 inches by getting bigger springs and using the current struts or by using spacers? I think that in both cases new longer rear shocks will be needed. Help!

I'm about to be installing King Springs for a little lift on our '08 Sport. Wondering how the front struts will pair with them.

I am hoping to keep the firmness of the sport suspension, but am not against buying aftermarket struts.

I also don't want to be coming up against the internal stops of the stock struts constantly. Any advice or help greatly appreciated
