4.5" or 6" icon lift

I was looking to do 35 or 36 " tires what kit would give a better ride the 4.5 shackle lift or the 6" spring lift? Will 36" tires fit under the 4.5" lift?

A hanger lift will always ride better than a spring lift. If you want a 6" lift use 2" hangers and Icon 4" front springs with their 5" rears for the best ride quality. properly valved Bilsteins are a must.

4.5" will ride better due to retaining stock springs...you can clear 35s.

6" has springs so the ride will be a little firmer, but hold up to abuse better than stock springs.
