Default Leveling kit & 255/75/17

Anyone have a pic of a jk with leveling kit & the stock 17" wheels with stock 255/75/17s?

Do the tires look really small?

I wanted to see what it would look like so I took my motorcycle jack and jacked up under the front bumper (just put a section of 2x4 between the jack and the bumper you could use any kind of jack)) to take the weight off the springs I could see exactly what it will look like. I think any more then about 1.5" looks goofy.

you might be able to find a few in the thread https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-show-tell-33/show-off-ur-leveling-kit-requesting-pics-info-190689/

Page 16 or 17 I believe Bigred's white one with 4 dr 18/59's and Teraflex Leveling kit. Looks pretty sweet.

Great pics, even the right color!
Which leveling kit do you have?

I'm assuming those are the 255/75/17 stock Rubicon wheels/tires?

Here's an AEV 2" spacer lift with stock Rubi's. I don't think it looks goofy at all. And it sits level but the way the street is it looks like the front is lower.

Idk about the leveling kit but I just got the 2.5 (this is not my jeep) and I don't think stock looks too horrible on it, I'll be driving around like that untill I get a deal on some tires

That looks great. Is it their spacer kit or the performance spring kit?

With a 2.5" RK lift on stock rims.



RK lift w/33" Boggers.
