Default EVO Plush Ride Coils 3"

Has anybody used these? I am getting a RK 3.5 Mid Arm Kit, but I want to run 35's and do not think 35's sit right on this kit. I also do not like how low the 2.5 is, so hopefully 3" evo coils can solve that. Does anybody have experience with them?

I'm running the 3" EVO coils and they're awesome. They do sit a little higher than 3 inches though.

What do you mean that 35's don't sit right on RK 3.5" lift? Unless you are running flat flares, 35's and 3.5" lift looks perfect.

I'm running 35" BFGs on a RK 3.5" with Trailmod flares and I think it looks pretty good and allows for good up travel. It's be perfect with stock flares. I'm planning on 37" tires soon though.

I don't know I just did not like it when I test drove a jeep with the same setup. It felt uneasy the whole time I was driving it. I am going to buy this lift and I guess just run it and see how I like it before I jump on the evo coils.

Tire pressure makes a difference in the way it will handle as does the adjustment of the lower control arms.

Since it was a test drive, the dealership probably had 65 psi in the tires because that's what the sidewall says. That'll make it ride like shit.

Just food for thought.
