Default SHOCKS and COIL SPACERS

I should know the answer to this but....

I'm putting 1/2" Teraflex coil spacers on my 2.5" lift to help with winch and rear bumper sagging that is bound to happen. I'm also upgrading to Pro Comp shocks. Question being: Do I want 2.5" shocks or do I want 3" shocks to accommodate the 1/2" coil spacer difference?

I would stay with 2.5 shocks .3" shocks would be for 3"to 4"lift and it could unseat the coils or pull on break lines.
