Default Extended Radius Arms?

Oh so I'm still fairly new to lifting suspension, even with all the work I've done to my truck, and I've heard people say on my threads that as high as I've lifted my truck 4-4.5 inches that stuff is going to wear and break. And while stumbling around Craigslist I found extended radius arms for a STEAL! Do I need them? Should I grab them? Or is it not necessary?
