Flame suit on, need lift opinions..
OK, so we just got another JK.. This will be a daily driver and will see little to no offroad use.. 09 auto JKU..
Like to order a kit, used RC before and it was too rough.. Dont need a LA kit or anything expensive really..
Been looking at RE and Zone offroad but have no experience with them other than a RE SOA kit for a YJ years ago....
Im upgrading gears to 4.88 to help with the 35" tires..
I know this is more of a "mall crawler" type JK but it is what it is, I want a nice looking Jeep for my daily driver again..

Love my metalcloak 1.5" (sits at 2.25) urban assault kit... Looks great and does what I want. I'm more of a two tracker / explorer type than the mud/rocks (for now)for a pretty complete kit it was pretty inexpensive, and I'd think you could fit 35s

RE and Zone are no different the RC. BDS, voodoo, skyjacker, are some others. You can simply tell by the price and the lack of components they offer in the kits they all go about lifting the same cheap way and have their shit built in China. There are a million lift threads on here and every other forum, try doing a little searching. On this forum you are going to get teraflex, metal cloak, and rock krawler pushed at you. Your needs and your budget will dictate what lift you should buy, not someones opinions on a forum.

You were looking to get flamed, right?

I have a 2.5" RE with the included Bilstein shocks. I added adjustable track bars and the RE geometry correction kit. I have been told it has a rather comfortable ride quality. Very basic kit so don't expect a miracle but I like it.

... I love the jeeps, and wish i had the time for an offroad toy but I dont.. SO im looking for a nice setup that functions well for a daily driver and gives me the ability to run a larger tire-35's.. and also not look like the tire is stuffed in the wheel well, I just dont like how some of the 4DR's look really low and full of tire..Guess I want to just look like I can go anywhere...
