i've been researching some lifts lately and decided i want to go with a 2in to 3.5in lift and anywhere from 33in to 35in tires. I've only had my jeep for a month and use it as a daily driver. I'm wondering if going with a higher lift and 35in would be bad to drive around town with all the time, I understand i will lose some mpgs by doing this, as well as power. I'm just trying to figure out which way would be best for a daily driver, that I will be hitting trails with.

 

Tons of threads out there-search 33 vs 35 and you'll get some good stuff.
I went with the Teraflex 2.5 on my 2 dr (actually got the 4 dr kit for a bit more lift) and am will be getting 16x8 wheels and Duratrac 315's when my original Rubi's wear down and I have $
do the search-it is worth the time.

 

ik you said u wanted 2-3.5 inches but im extremely happy with my Pro comp stage 1...it was only about 700 bucks and it does great out on the trails i have 35's and if i do say so myself it looks kickass lower gearing will help with acceleration, mpg, and crawling. do understand with all lift kits the ride is gonna b pretty shitty, the original jk suspension is really soft, new offroad shocks are gonna be rock hard

take it easy, hope it helped

 

I just had the Rock Krawler 2.5 Max Travel Lift installed and coupled that with Bilstein 5100's - I'm running 35's and the ride now is better than stock.

 

Thanks for all the advice I've decided to get a 2in lift with 33s after go through the forums, there is a bunch of useful stuff on here

 

I'm running the treaflex 2"/1" leveling kit with 33's. It's just about perfect. I'm installing Hanson bumpers and sliders next year so I may have to Goto the 2.5" performance lift with a mild body lift to get the look I want.

 

Amen to the info on this site!

 

Lol. All lifts will ride worse than stock?? This is definitely not true...

 

Alright alright. I have been proven wrong. Sorry if it mislead you. Ig the cheapie shocks that came with mine are just worse

 

I am going to be getting the OME lift for 2-2.75" of lift and if it's on the lower end of the lift then I'm adding 3/4" Daystar spacers up front. If you wanted more lift then you could get the OME HD springs for 3-3.5" of lift, but this lift is mainly for heavy bumpers and winch. I have no winch (nor do I have any plans to get one) so I'm going with the stock springs.

Hope this helps.
