Default bds 4.5" upgrade

I have the 4.5" lift and I want more, but don't want to buy another lift. I would like to buy the superlift coils which provide 6" lift, shocks to match, and adjust the control arms for the change. also add the jks aco spacers while I'm at it. Is this a reasonable expectation?

So you want 6" spring plus the ACOS? Why so much lift?

Well they say that 37's fit fine with 4.5", it really depends on what you're doing. I have 35X14.5's and I can get them to rub with the steering wheel in full lock and flexed. tube flares will help, but I need to take it up a notch. BTW when is poison spyder going to come out with the rear fenders for the jk?

You need to look more into your wheels BS, i think you need not to go higher than 4.5" w/37", consider some wheels spacers.

I have the jk and these tires still stick out a good 4 inches past the flares,
