Default Lift/Tire questions

Just purchased a 2.5 teraflex BB and looking to Buy 18 inch either KMC Rockstars or Monsters. What tire should I run 33 or 35? I don't do to much wheeling since I live more in an Urban area. How will 33's look compared to the Stock Sahara Wheels they are obviously wider but how is the Height? For the BB is there anything I need to purchase to Run 33's or 35's? Thanks For all the Help!

I went with 18" also (mostly due to ignorance) and though I do like the looks of the bigger diameter, I dread the day when it comes to get new tires because of the BIG difference in price. I may decide then to step down to 17". Even with getting new wheels it may make more sense.

you can roll 37s with a 2.5bb. I still need a 1" bl and flat fenders to avoid rubbing when stuffed, but it does just fine on the road.
