2024 Sahara question.

[Camoderek]

Hello everyone,

i just got my wife a 2024 Sahara cause she wanted that 1 touch roof setup and now she wants a better more aggressive “look” so I’m looking for guidance on small lift and tire combo.
I have a new lifted Superduty and she does NOT want it that big but maybe a simple 2-3” with some “not noisy” 33” tires. I run Ridge grapplers on mine and she thinks they are too aggressive.
Pics would be ideal if anyone has done the same simple setup, 33” maybe 35” and small enough lift and wheel spacer (if necessary) combo that maintains ride quality. This Jeep will never see mud or sand or even gravel it mind aswell be 2wd but as i said it’s purely aesthetics.

thank you.

If you are only going to 33" I wouldn't lift it. 33s should clear and the lift will just reduce your ride quality. If you go up to 35" then maybe start looking at a 2" lift.

My recommendation, take her to a Jeep event (like a local club meetup you find on facebook) and have her point out what she likes.

Similar to "2 foot itis" on boats, it's so easy to change tire/lift size on Jeeps, most people tend to progressively want more.

2-3 inch lift on a wrangler with 33 inch tires will make them look like training wheels. 35 inch tires IMO. When she says "aggressive" is she referring to agressive tread/sidewall or does she want the jeep to have some poke or "stance"?

Additionally, I assume you're in St. Petersburg, FL? She could run MTs which would have a much more aggressive looking tread, however, MTs are notoriously poor in heavy rain so I would venture for something along the lines of 35" BFG K02 ATs or Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws. Toyo Open Country ATs another fantastic option.

Agree with the above - don't lift it. Throw some 33 AT's on there and enjoy!

Love the idea of just throwing some AT’s on it like open country’s or BfG’s and leaving suspension alone, will she have an issue with rubbing or clearance? I called local Jeep shop and they said lift and spacers on OEM wheels for 33” tires. She loves her rims and wants to keep them just not sure the offset and width will work on those rims.

Also while I’ve got some ears, i noticed some unpainted surfaces on the interior is this normal? An over the subwoofer in the back is white when rest is black and the on the touch screen can the background be changed?

33s on stock 4xe sahara is more than fine.. I ran 33s on stock sahara 3.6v6.. yours sits 1" higher due to high spring rate.. you should be all good.

33s on stock Sahara

Yeah they're BSing you if they want you to buy that stuff for 33s. You're fine.

If they are 17s, Rubicon take offs are always all over the place from people upsizing. Those are 285/70R17s.

Silent yet aggressive tires in the order of least to medium noisy
- Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT
- Flaken Wildpeak AT3W
- BFG KO2s

My wife’s Sahara has a 2.5” lift and 34“ Yokohama Geolander X-ATs, on the stock rims. No wheel spacers, no rubbing. It’s a JKS lift (same on my Rubi), with HD spring rate and Fox 2.0 shocks. Rides BETTER than stock.

1) For her usage, I absolutely wouldn't bother with 35s.
2) Agree with others, put the 33s on there and see how it looks. If you need a little more lift, the Teraflex Spacer Lift is a great way to get a little height (especially if it's on-road only).

I'm 6'1" and this is my 2021 Sahara on 33" BF KO2s with the 1.5" TF spacer lift on it.

I just did a 2.5" Clayton Overland+ lift and 35s on my new 2024 Sahara, for comparison probably more than she's looking for ...

I do not see anything out of the norm in your first picture, look just like my hardtop or maybe I missed something?
