Your jeep looks like a roller skate, the flex isn't impressive. Looks like you're running a 9" travel shock on a 6 inch lift.

Stock fenders and 37s.

You could run 38s id just atleast c gusset and truss for how cheap it is.

Or run stock fenders and 37s.

don't take it personally, and you did ask for advice. Not trying to be a dick just saying...and if you browse people's builds there aren't many big lifts (5.5"+) at all and the ones that do are usually on 40s and they are usually 4 doors. plenty of reasons for this but if you just want people to tell you yes 6" of lift is a good idea and 37s will be fine no matter what...then idk why you ask for advice. don't take it personally though and in your defense at least it wasn't your idea to buy that lift

The irony in all this is that lift height has nothing to do with tire clearance or flex. It does give more belly clearance, but sort of pointless since your axles are still hanging way low.

exactly, and breakover angle/belly clearance is not a big issue on 2 doors.
