Tera Flex 2.5 with 33's ?
Ive been snooping around trying to figure out what iw ant to do. I do alot of highway driving and go offroading about 2 weekends a month. I dont want to jeperdize my highway ride. Ive heard 2 lifts teh OME and the TERAFLEX 2.5 with springs are supposed to be good klits. My question is..
Which Kit for the better highway ride? Are 33's Going to work effortlessly or should i go higher. I still go out offroad and dont want to run into any problems on the trail tire rubbing etc. PLEASE HELP! Does anyone have any pics of a 2.5 with 33's? will itlook ok or should i go higher? |
I do...Still getting 19-20 mph as long as I drive smart, good pressure in the tires, and stay out of stop and go traffic. Go with AT tires as well, that is if you aren't in mud a lot. http://my.project-jk.com/data/500/medium/IMG_1467.JPG

the 33's will fit without a lift with only minor wheel scrub flexed out with sway bars disconnected. If you have the right wheels. So any height of lift will be fine. Go for whatever look you want. The higher you go. The more stuff you need. IE: Shocks, Adjustable trac bars, ETC.http://my.project-jk.com/data/505/Jeep_roof_rack_1.jpg

I have the OME, what most would consider the Medium duty. After a couple thousand miles the ride is softening up nicely. It was a little stiff at first for me. The funny thing I have found about the OME is that is down the Freeway, I feel all the small bumps in the road a little more than the stock suspension. However, it seems to absorb the larger pot holes and such a little better than stock. Over all, better control on the freeway though. The handling and stability has tightend up. Still not the life changing ride I was expecting from the other reviews. I like it, but not to the extent as many others here. I would be curious to see how Tera's lift rides in comparison...

I have the Teraflex 2.5", running LT285/70R17 BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A KO's (about 32.77"). No rubbing except for extreme articulation, and even then it is only slight on the fender.

I too use my Jk as my daily driver and commute about 30 miles each way to work...I went with the TF 2.5 BB and 33's & have noticed little loss in mpg and it performs awesome off road!
