The lift is AEV 2.5" DualSport XT Suspension with AEV Front Drop Brackets. I gained about 3" from the stock Willys Wheeler Suspension, which would be about 4" over a stock Sport JKU and that is with heavy ARB front bumper/winch and rear bumper/tire carrier. These measurements were with the stock BFG Mud Tires and before I installed Goodyear DuraTrac 315/70/R17 Tires.

Me, Too!
I am picking up my new Freedom edition on Saturday. I was going to put some BFG 35x12.50R17 on the stock mineral grey wheels, but I am told they are too wide. I will be putting on some wheel spacers.
So what options do I have in the 35" tire size? My preference is an All Terrain this time and was going to go with the ATKO2 from BFG.... I will be putting the Teraflex 2.5" lift on.
Thanks in advance for your help!

I just priced all the above (TF 2.5) - keeping my 17" stock wheels (I have an anvil gray with red accent Hard Rock ed.) and using spacers. I like the Mickey's, too - but pretty pricey. Off brands I noticed at good prices: Coopertires? NITTO? And BFGs...but M/Ts (not sure I want that).
Honestly, I can't say enough about the TG's personally. Will definitely buy another set in the next 12 months to replace the ones I have now.

Is your wife's jeep lifted? I am considering these tires if they fit without a lift. I an currently running Hankook MT 285/70R-17. If a lift is required I may just go to 35's. I'm already regearing to 4.56 and planning bigger brakes.
