Hello: I just did a 2" Rusty's Performance lift with 35" on 17" wheels, Bilstein B6 4600 shocks, and Synergy sector shaft brace. See photo. Jeep now handles precisely whereas before if wondered. My suggestion is to visit a Jeep tuner that can guide you with the right build for your needs.Anyone have an opinion on this strategy? I want put 35's on my JL rubicon 2-dr, with -6 offset wheels that I picked out. It looks really borderline whether they will rub or not, but consensus looks like the neg offset will cause a little rub when fully articulated. However the pics of the 2" lift kits out there make the 35's look kind of small to my eye, and I'm looking to minimize the change to handling. I'm going for a modestly more aggressive look (I like the slightly wider stance from the wheels), but not ready to go to 37s to sort of "fill up" that 2" lift. Also with my 2dr I know I don't need to lift as much due to the shorter wheelbase.
Just an inch might cure that rub, so I'm thinking I'll go ahead and put the wheels/tires on, take it off-road, and if I get a little rub I'll go for a spacer lift kit, like this: https://www.extremeterrain.com/teraflex-15-performance-spacer-lift-kit-2018-jeep-jl-2-door.html (or even a 1" spacer if they sell one)
This is my first jeep. Anything wrong with this idea?
