Question Thinkin 'bout baggin' the Tahoe?

I really want to bag one of my rides. I'm not 100% sure which one, but right now I'm leaning towards the Tahoe though.

Here are my thoughts:

1. I'm kinda on a budget (doing a slow house remodel too).
2. I don't wanna remove inner fenders or cut into the body anywhere.
3. The Tahoe is lowered roughly 5 1/2" Front & 7" Rear.
Front: 2 1/2" Spindles 3" Springs; Rear: C-Notch, Shackles, Hangers
4. My wheels are 22x9.5 with 255/30/22's.
5. I would like to run 24x10 with 255/30/24's.
6. The only thing I haul is a quad on a 5x8 trailer

Seeing how they probably won't fit right now without rubbing, I am considering doing a "Air Over Leaf" type in the rear with a heavy duty type bag (just enough to give me clearance to drive, and be slammed when I let the air out.

For the front probably just bolt-in bags, plates and cups, with relocated shock mounts. Also just giving me enough lift to drive.

Anyone have any opinions?
