A body lift allows you to fit bigger tyres without mucking up your drive line of castor on the front wheels. It also gives the car better stability as it keeps the centre of gravity lower than a spring lift. You should limit your spring lift to around 3 inch bump stop clearance in the front and 5 in the back.
But by most people a change in springs will allow you to fit any tyre you want, go around corners at 100 mph and allow you to go over rocks like you are on a flying carpet.
