The new rockstar 3 the plastic add on things can be taken off so nothing will touch the star and such . The rockstar 2 I don't like wish I knew how to add pics lol

The rock star 3 is very customizable and for my purposes should suit me fine was originally between fuel hostage wheels and the full blown ones

I got stains from badlands mud on my soft top that I can't get out. I'v tried everything under the sun short of diesel fuel and it won't come out. I don't care though because the top is usually down year round:

Badlands has everything. Sand dunes. trails thru the trees, rock quarry, steep climbs, creek run, nasty mud bogs. There are trails for everyone but don't be surprised if you come home with some custom pin stripping and scrapped up wheels. Its all a part of the off road experience. If you want something easy plan a trip to the mall and enjoy the speed bumps.

Badlands sound awesome!
Good chance you'll need some lower CA's or drop brackets. I had the 2.5 TF lift on my old jeep and it handled horribly until I corrected the caster.
I'd skip the 5100's - and go with OME LT's. 5100's seem like they're more suited to a heavier jeep (armored up) or a 3/4 ton truck. Stiff compression
