This was my wifes old jeep w/ 35" and skyjacker 2.5" lift w/ shocks and springs.

I traded for a silver Rubi w/ power locks and windows to keep her from complaining anymore. Well I just got my wheels in

I'm think of going back w/ 35 and a 2.5" lift, I just know which one? My wife will never go off road just off the curb alot. I could get a front end alignement every two weeks if I could afford it.
When I got the lift and tires they were the only one's out there at the time.

So which lift and which tires would you go with? (ride quality) I will probably still go w/ the smittybuilt front and rear bumpers again she liked them, maybe diff. winch because it rusted and looked cheap after a year in the weather.
I've got to keep the Honey happy.
Thanks,

I would suggest the Old Man Emu (OME) 2" lift w/ shocks for ride quality.

I second the OME lift. Mine if an OME Frankenlift. As far as tires, I do alot of on-road driving, but still wanted off-road capability. I went with the ProComp Xtreme A/T. They are really quiet on road, and the large tread is very capable off road. They also have a 40K mile warranty. Here is a pic of what they look like.
