Thanks again
I have the 3.5" Rock Krawler lift with Rancho shocks. Below are some pics. The guy at 4wd hardware called Rancho and gave them my specs to get a suggested shock. I just went with whatever he suggested.

The first, third and last pic have the stock tires. I didn't like the look of the 3.5" lift with the stock tires. It looks a lot better with the 35's. When i put the winch on I liked the look of the red lettering with the all black look. I debating going with neon green (MW3 Logo) for accents but decided I liked the red better. I painted the bolts on the gas cap, and the ones on the bumper. Also went with the ARB diff covers for the red. I used Gutter guards from Home Depot for my grille inserts and got the JW Speaker LED headlights. Trying to think of what to do next.

Looks Great! I like the red as well and and definitely not a big fan of the green. Great idea with the gutter guards for grill inserts. Did you just spray paint them or what? Only thing I've done different so far is the shorty antenna, which I think looks much better.

I know it's not one of your choices but look at fierce attitudes by Goodyear. It's what I have on my jeep and I love them and barely any noise at all!! And they do amazing off road also and not to mention the are cheaper then all the other tires u just listed

My 35" BFG KM2 tires got me to the top of Shafer trail near Moab. Easy trail and very scenic. Here's a 360 view that you can drag around. Hit the letter F for full screen. I took this today.

Originally I painted them with regular black paint, but ended up plasti dipping them a couple weeks ago. I used velcro to mount them so i can easily pull them off and touch em up anytime i get a rock or giant Ohio bug chip the paint.

The fierce attitudes give a nice ride and look badass. Gotta love the barbed wire tread!! I couldn't be happier with mine.
