@Clayton Off Road. I have a 20 unlimited sport altitude which almost sits level now. Just added a winch and bumper and only lost 1/2 inch in the front. How do you think the Jeep sit with the 2.5 premium lift? Do you make a 2.5 overland kit?

We do have our Overland Plus kit as well as our Premium Kit available, both use the same coils and would have you sitting probably about the same as you are now. The kits are designed to remove a little bit of the factory rake, but not all of it. I'll include a picture so you can check out the stance on a JL with our 2.5" kit plus a winch and bumper. Let me know if there's anything else I can help with.

I installed the Clayton Overland+ 3.5in lift with Fox 2.0 shocks a few weeks ago. I have nothing but amazing things to say about it. It absolutely rides better then stock even with 37in BFG KM3 mud terrains. 2.5in is probably the right choice for 37s, but I plan on doing 39s in the near future so I went 3.5in.

after 20k miles on the kit with Steel Bumpers and a winch. Enjoying every mile on and off road.

Thanks, what size tires are you running? Are those stock wheels?

My street setup is 37's on stock wheels with a spacer. Off Road I run 38s on beadlocks.

What size space did you use to make that work? What is the wheel size?

I am running spidertrax 1.75 inch spacers for the stock wheel setup. Probably could run without or less spacer but that's what I'm using. Wheels are stock width at 7.5 inches.

Are these the 17x8.5 0 offset or the 9 with -12 offset? Any rubbing anywhere?
17x8.5 with 4.75 backspacing. Went with exactly what Clayton recommends on their side. No rubbing on road at all. I’ll be testing it off road next weekend.
