The tires give you a little over 2" I dont know about the leveling kit because I do not have one. I know it looks 100% better and fills in those wheel wells quite nicely. You should be very happy when you see it.

Stock 265's are about 32" dia -

Switch to about 35" = 3" total difference / 2 = 1.5" actual increase in vehicle height/ground clearance.

I have the leveling kit and like it just fine - the net increase in vehicle height with the leveling kit results from changing the overall attitude of the pickup - I'll take a WAG and say a 2" leveling kit will raise the overall height minimally; even though it will raise the cab/forward probably 1.5" (+ -). There's probably somebody out there with better information than I can give you.
