Default Lift question

I just recently upgraded to a 4door 2010 sport from a 2door 09. I was wondering what would be a good 2 - 2.5 inch lift for my tire and rim combination. I am running 33 inch KM2's. Any input would be great.

Thanks

I would throw them on the Jeep and go from there. Unless you have them on already and you're asking for a suspension to compliment them with.

Then, there is a lot of choices! If 35's are in the future then I would get something like a 2.5" Coil lift with shocks from TeraFlex...

Newbie questions - what would the difference between a coil lift & a standard suspension lift be? A coil lift as aposed to just coil spacers? I see some lift kits are sold without shocks, ex. Rancho. Are these suppose to use OEM shocks or are the shocks sold separately? Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
