I agree 100%. The wider stance gives it that little extra and now I have now worries about 35's when my tires wear out.

I have the teraflex 2/1 leveling kit from northridge. Gives the jeep a nice stance. I'm not running spacers. I don't rub anywhere only at full lock in certain situations.

Looks great! I have the leveling kit (puck), would have gotten the springd if they were out at the time, but nevertheless really satisfied. Will soon be upgrading the puck kit to the springs and some Old Man Emu shocks.

I meant wheel spacers, im just using the good ole spacers above the springs. works great. if I was going new springs I would go 2.5" all around! the new wheels and rancho shocks will be great!

Thanks for the advice! Right now I'm thinking I'll powder coat or bedline my stock rims and add a taller tire so spacers are a good option. Cant really justify spending all that dough on new wheels.

so i'm literally on the verge or ordering this thing... i made a post but i guess i'll ask here since it seems like a good place to

i've done a lot of looking around, already read this whole 23 page thread....

heres (a small part of) my current setup:
stock rubi wheels/tires off a 2010
1.5inch spidertrax wheel spacers
1 inch body lift
heavier than stock tube-bumbers


do you guys think the body lift will interfere with this? i dont want to over extend any lines or arms... will i need any brackets to extend anything?

thoughts on bump stops?

thoughts on gas mileage from stock?

thanks guys
