If you wanna do 37s. IMHO get a rock krawler, aev, or teraflex 2.5 in suspension lift, get flat fender flares. You get easily fit 37s with 2.5 lift and flat fenders. Make sure you beef up the steering for the 37s. You are gonna want 4.88 gears at least. It will run like shit. Do you have the 3.6 or 3.8 engine?

You can keep a lot of the stock parts like drive shafts and things with 2.5 inches of lift.

with the 3.6 you will be good regearing the axles to 4.88 gears. Which is highly highly recommended with 37s. I almost wanna regear for my 33s. But I am soon because I'm putting 35s on it.

What front end mods are you referring to because 4-6" will more then likely need some front end mods to give a decent ride.

A 2.5-3.5" lift with flat fenders, which I think you mentioned, on 37s will look plenty "hard". <--- I feel ashamed just for typing that.

IMO 22s look ridiculous on a wrangler. I prefer a balance of rim to rubber. 17" and 37s looks perfect to me. Throw a set of bead locks on and it looks even better.

Your right, it's your jeep so you can do as you like with it. And to me there is no such thing as a real jeeper. They are made to be driven like every other damn vehicle plain and simple. There is no you can only drive this offroad if you purchase it agreement between jeep and the customer when they are sold. However your gonna catch a lot of backlash from people because there are a lot of passionate people in the jeep community who believe if you don't have a certain look or do things a certain way then your an idiot. Lol.

People are calling you out on your money out statement because that high a lift and 37s with cheap parts has a great chance of causing you more issues and money in the long run. They are just trying to help you out in their own way. Lol

Are you in college or high school?
