Green Machine has got it right on the head...

I liffted with TF 2.5'' coils and shocks and rocked stock wheels and tires on my rubi for a while... I could flex the balls out of it too and it was awesome... then I put on 35's and rubbed on the front plastic skid, so I ripped it off... then I was hitting my rubi rails when flexing out so I chopped off 3 inches of them hahaha

I was better off (flex wise) with stock wheels and no rubbing

I ran my rear links on the inside with the stock Rubi wheels and tires, and the only rubbing I had is my drive shaft rubbing the skid, and I have the upper bolts rubbing on the frame, so I will probably get another washer and double them up on the outside so it doesn't rub the frame anymore.

Well I just ended up removing the rear sway bar completely, so there were no issues, but will this cause many in the future? I'll put it back on next week when the new wheels come in and take it easy in the meantime...

You can do the whole lift including the links! Just limit your flexing as at full flex your left rear inside rim will scrap the link. This ois on a rubi,don't know about other jeeps.
