Default 2012 Jeep wrangler renegade package

Anyone familiar with the Renegade package installed by the dealer. I just picked up my new to me jeep and it needs tires. Not sure what lift they used. I'd like to get a set of 35's. Currently running 285/70/17.Click image for larger version

I think the "Renegade" package is just a sticker on your hood since I've got a 2012 and have never heard about a "Renegade" dealer installed upgrade....

I've got the dealer sticker and it was a $4500 option. Wheels tires, small lift and stickers. Has Sky Jacker shocks. Came out of Bristol, TN.

Still not an "official" jeep option, just something that dealer put together.

I understand that. Didn't know if anyone else was familiar with it. Trying to figure out what lift they may have installed.

Post up pics of the suspension components and people will attempt to help you. Aside from skyjacker shocks do the control arms or springs have stickers or logos? None of us know what you got just because someone put a renegade sticker on your hood.

Perhaps call the dealership in Bristol, TN and ask.

Default good lookin 2 door though

you can see it has a mild lift gas cover sticker, running boards. 4500 buck option you should have more than that though . But enjoy it for whatever is on it right? Long as you felt it was worth it. Id dump the sky jacker shocks though!
. they rust out prematurely
maybe they tossed this on http://www.extremeterrain.com/skyjac...D&XTID=J104138
if so id prefer the stock parts in my opinion
if thats what the dealer did , they made a couple grand with out doing much because those items dont cost 4,500.00 maybe at retail cost for all parts ?
Regardless its your platform now to make it custom for you tear it all off lol
Kinda funny how the dealer can put any ol lift on and sell it . But if we Install a quality lift they try and void warrantys

bythe time your done you might keep the sticker on hood and gas cap

the wheels tires sideboards lift and sport stickers shocks will most likely go

I think you maybe right. I didn't pay $4500 for it. 2 guys before me did. Think I'm gonna run some 285/75/17. They should fit. Then I'm gonna start the upgrades. Need tires for winter.
