Will I need new brakelines after installing a leveling kit? (2,5" keys and 2" spacers.)

No new brakelines needed. Just be careful on the rear, if not you will snap the vent line.

Looks great! Love the wheel combo. I like it a lot better than the avatar picture.

How's the ride w/ keys/spacers? Found a few on ebay for 125-140. Might grab one and slap it on if the ride quality isn't terrible.

Sorry havent posted in a while, the rims are forged ion magnum plati-dipped black. And as far as ride quality goes, installed the billstein 5100s and the improvement is much better. Before the bills the ride quality didnt change enough for me to notice just got bouncy over bumps since the stock shocks were topped out or near to topping out.

This. You WILL need shock extenders, or longer shocks.
It will ride stiff, and bouncy if you just do the spacer and keys.

I just went the Ebay route and got the keys for $40 shipped (FORDGED) and rear spacers for like $40 bucks I think. Got the shock extenders too, but those are universal and did not fit my Yukon. The front extenders were modified and my mechanic made them work. But the rear is different design, so shocks may be the best alt.
