Remember that whatever springs you use, you'll lose about a quarter to half an inch of height after the suspension settles in over a period of time.
But the bright side is that your ride will also smooth out a little also!
One last point, be sure you know what your end game is for your build. You don't want to purchase light weight springs and then in a year or two add full front and rear bumpers, sliders, skids, RTT, etc.
IF all you'll EVER plan on is just a stock GX with larger tires, then go with the light springs.

Just installed Dobinson C59-677V supposed to be 3” of lift. I’ll let you know how the go. Don’t have the rig back on the wheels yet, but I can say they were probably 4” taller than my previous Dobinson 1.75-2” coils, don’t know the number.

Remember you'll lose some height when they settle in and of course any extra weight when you load up for a trip or playing bus driver.
Here is an old pic when I had OME 2889’s in the rear
