Default FITTING 35s WITH A BODY LIFT???

Ok I've got a RC 1.25 inch body lift with 33s and I think they look to small. I've heard you can fit 35s with a body lift but wanted some opinions. This will just be temporary to drive until I add a suspension lift. I don't want to add flat flares right now. Any input will be greatly Appreciated thanks guys!

You may be cutting it close with just a Body Lift.

35's on a JK is not difficult. Just trim some air dam and limit the up travel. 35's are the new 31's....

If the air dam is an issue, take it off. I say try the 35s with the body lift. If it rubs, i bet it dont rub much.

Personal opinion of lift options... spring it or leave it alone.

Flat fenders with 35s in stock mode seem to have worked fine for a few members.
