The step up in size are gonna look awesome! I totally thought you were already on 35s, so this is gonna be sweet.
Thanks.
That's sick for sure. Might have to rethink my future lift choices.
Thanks. Honestly, If I could re-start this build from the beginning, I would still go with a 4 inch kit, but a long arm. That would offer better road manners and still give me the ability to add an extra spacer or whatever later if I wanted. As of now, I'm running a 4 inch short arm, and it works, however, I've had to really sacrifice the up travel and it's not the smoothest thing on the road, I know a longarm would drive better.
As far as tires, I still think/feel that 35s are the max I would want to go. I've seen WJs with 37s and it's a huge fricken tire for that platform. Even when I got these tires the other day, I stood one up next to boardsurfer's 37s, and the 37s are SO MUCH BIGGER than the 35s. On a WJ with a 4 inch lift, you would really have to move the rear axle back which pushes the pumpkin back into the fuel tank or go to a 6 inch kit, which is huge.
And this is all just 'on the road' stuff. I haven't taken it offroad yet with these tires, and am hoping I have no issues with clearances, etc.
