here's another question. would getting the GY MTR's with kevlar at 33x12.5x15 be worth it? then buy some 15' rims and slap em on there? found a good price for the 33's.

If I ran my stock 16's I would need spacers right?

And does anyone have a picture of 34's and a leveling kit? I wonder if that would even fit 34's. (305/75/16)

Do the TF 2.5" kits come with quick sway bar disconnects?

If those lifts dont, you could get a pair

See some threads started by Discount Tire Direct... You can get a set of 15" MB72 alloy with 33" KM2. Don't need any spacers but maybe a BB or a leveling kit.

I thinkI would head down the path of getting a 1" body lift, Cragar soft 8s and getting my tires into the 34" range with some rear bump stop extensions. Body lifts afford you a lot of choices, are inexpensive and also are easy to install and remove. They give you lots of flexibility for the future and you're not going to be out a ton of money if you shelve them.

I am in same price range and trying to figure out which wheels and tires I want. Only difference is I have 18" Sahara's and the dealer put them on new, so I have only put 7000 miles on them. Trying to be patient and wear them out, but I so want wheels and tires!!

If you check the Teraflex site and look at their Leveling Kit, it shows a red JK Unlimited with 34's.

Either that, or check the "Show your 33's" and "Show your 34's" threads. There's a few people on there that are running that setup as well.
