2" will cost less, as you will probably need a caster correction kit with the 4".

Hi,
Have 2" spring lift in a 2 door RR. Hated the wandering feel on the highway due to lack of caster, but put up with it for years (being lazy). Worked out that I actually had no more than 0 degrees and probably negative.
Rotated the swivels when doing a complete rebuild. Not hard to do. Difference was amazing - pleasure to drive now.
