Default New lift

Hey guys I need some help. I'm planning on getting a 2.5 in lift soon but I won't have money to get bigger tires yet. Right now I have 32" tires on. Does anyone think that will look funny? It will probably have to stay that way for about a year...

It won't look funny at all, in fact Jeep should have them come like that off the show room floor. I ran mine for 2 weeks like that with a teraflex 2.5" coil lift and stock wheels and km's with spider trax spaces, then I went to 37" km2's with a 1 1/4" rough country body lift, trimmed fenders,pinch seams and cut 2" off the rubi rock sliders.

Alot of guys may say this looks funny, however in ur situation u r limited due to ur lack of funds the only recourse would be to purchase the lift and do not install it until u can afford larger tires and install them all at the same time otherwise just do the lift and when u can afford it do the tires...good luck

There's actually a good portion of members on here that think stuffing large tires on little or no lift looks great so you should be fine
