#1. It is a Jeep. Not a Car.

#2. If not offroading spacers could be ok but coils will be a lot better.

Agreed. I have 2 inch Daystar coilspring spacers, often called a budget boost, and 33's on our Jeep.

Any mod is to accomplish a goal. What is the goal for your lift? Is it just for looks; are you planning to wheel heavy, or run 37" tires? What are you trying to do?

Spend some time learning, don't rush, read the FAQs. The better informed you are the better your money will be spent

When you add weight, the coils 'squish' causing the loss of height. If you add spacers, you will regain height, but the coils are still squished. New coils are the better option. Decide how much height you want and then start looking at coils.

The front TF 'Performance' leveling coils give about 2".
The front TF 2.5" coils and OME HD coils both give about 3"
