6" of lift is a lot of lift on a 2 door. I'd go 37s minimum

I have 6.5" with 37" tires and tube fenders. There is plenty of room for 38"-40" tires using some d60's axles.

I had plenty of room for 37" tires just with the OEM plastic fenders. It looked and flexed fine.

Not to hijack the post, but how do you like those SSRs?? Just curious how they do on-road because I'm sure they're pretty good off-road.

Thanks
