Not going crazy as for this is dd. looking at 3 to 3 1/2 lift right now centered on bds, rough country, or Rubi express.

All constructive input welcome.

I am going with AEV 2.5" with BFGoodrich 285/75/17 if you have not checked them out, give it a look

 

I have the exact lift and tire size now. The combo works great. The lift handles so well at all speeds its nuts. I netted somewhere between 3"-3.5"s of total lift. I did ad their geometry brackets and its made a big difference vs not having them.

 

Thanks for your feedback! I am looking forward to it big time. Ordered yesterday from Northridge (with brackets also) and tires from of all places Amazon glad to hear it's working out so well!

 

Show me pics. I was looking at going to 35s instead of 33s.

In for pics. I'm thinking the EXACT same setup. Maybe going Toyo's AT or Duratracs instead of the BFGs, but we'll see.

 

I wouldn't recommend 3-3.5" of lift if you decide on 33's. 2.5" is the most I would go with 33's or there will be a lot of empty wheel well space. Just my 2 cents

 

I'm running a 3.25 RC lift with 33s and Flat flares and JKS quicker discos. I don't have any rubbing at full flex that I've caught so far, I'm going up to 35s on this next set if tires and will be switching to tube fenders as well. I'm looking at changing my lift out to a Zone 4" pretty soon and will be trimming the rear sheet metal and regearing before the new tires go on

 

I just did a 3" BDS lift with Mickey Thompson 35" ATZ P3 tires. They are the new replacement for the ATZ's. a little more aggressive, somewhere in between a MT and an AT tire. So far I love everything, handling is awesome and the ride is pretty smooth. I really like BDS lift kits, quality components and a very straight forward install. I added the steering stabilizer and the adjustable front track arm. My JK is a DD, I do moderate off roading for hunting and fishing, nothing too extreme though. Hope this helps.

 

Here you go! AEV 2.5" lift with 34" Nitto Terra Grapplers 285/75/17's.
