Smile 54,000 miles later...

ah man, after debating on details for about 2 yrs/54,000 miles (33's? 35's? 33's? 35's?), I just dropped some serious coin on some 35" BFG KM2's, rugged ridge alloys, and an OME HD lift kit. My wife is gonna kill me.

I'm kinda buggin' out wondering if I am going to LOVE or HATE driving this thing after all the mods. Not too many peeps around here have lifted JK's so I'm not even sure what this is going to look like in person.

Am I gonna love it????!!!!!!!

Hell, just with the lift you'll be happy. I have nothing but good things to say about the OME HD kit. Ride on and off-road is vastly improved.

I have a set of 35" tires/wheels waiting at the house when I get back from a work trip I'm on. I've seen several JK's on 35's....and the difference is striking. Much mo' vehicle presence with the 35's.

You'll like the change

Thumbs up

thanks for all the encouragement! I really do hope it drives better than stock as some of you have mentioned... also hope I slow down on the highway now. It will be good for me.
