Lift Help: For 35's & 20's [No Flames Please]
Hi,
I Need your help
I'm already buying wheels and tires for my incoming 2012 JKU Rubicon and
have a few concerns regarding clearance and choosing the right lift for these tires/wheels.
I know that 20's are not loved much but that's what I'll end up buying.
So please help me out choose the right height/brand lift.
This will be used mostly as a daily driver
[80% street/20% off road creeks, river beads, some mud etc... ]
Absolutely no wall climbing and nothing extreme.
Please keep flame comments to yourself...
Just need information to choose the right lift height/brand and not a flame discussion.
Thanks a lot for your help
regards,
Charles

You shouldn't need flat fender flares for 35's. Teraflex 2.5" kit states it will clear 35's with 4.5" backspacing on your wheels.. Make sure you're 20's come with proper backspacing or you'll get rubbing.. 2.5" minimum lift (3" probably looks better though) and plan on another way to carry your spare, ie tire carrier/bumper combo...
Hope this helps.

Thanks rdubb1031
It does helps a lot
I'm buying a rear AEV bumper with the tire carrier.
I just want to be 100% with the wheel backspacing before I commit and get the wheels.
cheers,
Charles
