I am thinking about getting the rough country 2" level kit for my 2013 Z71. It says it doesnt affect ride quality, but I'm more concerned about additional strain on suspension components. My silverado is 8 months old and only has 3, 700 miles on it so I have a ton of warranty that I dont want to void. Any thoughts?
All of the leveling kits ive installed that use "spacers" leave the suspension with messed up suspension geometry. It puts the balljoints at some funny angles along with the CV shafts if 4x4. I dont know about voiding your warranty but it also depends on the dealer.

my truck has almost 60k on it and has been leveled and then some since 600 miles on truck. 2 yrs ago the truck got another lower spacer to give it a total of 3" of front lift and haven't had any major issues with wear

it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference
Thanks for the input!

I just put a rough country 2.5 leveling and it rides the exact same. The CV's are not at a horrible angle and i really don't think i will have any issues. Also the upper ball joints are not to bad either. I would not go any higher than there 2.5 without dropping the transfer case as well.
here is a pick of mine
