Lower it!!! Then you won't look like all the other lifted XJs out there.
Seriously though... Why buy 2" spring packs? Are you stock ones totally trashed? It seems like a total waste to me.
If your leafs are shot add an add-a-leaf. Yes, they are stiff but if your stock springs are shot they will prob ride just fine, and then add a 2" spacer in the front.

Under $100 and it will give you 2" of lift. Then once you want to go bigger (or need heavier coils for that Cummins swap) you can sell the kit for $50 and get all but $25 and your shipping back.
