I guess this is my real question. I already have a 2" lift on a 2 door Sport S. The stock tires are 32". I want all terrain tires for medium off roading although mostly on road. I can get 34" tires (285/75r17) on my stock wheels. If I go up an extra inch to 35" (35x12.5x17) I will need new wheels and tires and a spare relocation. It'll cost me significantly more than twice as much as just the 34s.
I'm not sure that inch is worth lower power performance due to increased weight (I don't wish to spend time and money to re-gear.) Is there really enough gain off road to make all the expense worth it for a conservative guy? I think my existing wheels look nice so I don't need wheels just for their own sake.
Oh and if anyone knows the offsets of the pictured stock wheels on the Sport 2 door would you share? Not sure if the stock wheels will need spacers or not yet but they're not all that expensive.
Thanks.
