Yeah that’s correct but that is ok. I load a lot of camping gear and stuff. Hardly noticeable though.



Yeah those are the stocker at’s

315/70r17..so 35’s basically. Cooper stt pros on the stock wheels. Since they’ll mount on a 7.5-11in wheel. Then if I need spacers I’ll order some.

If you dont mind me asking why 35's over 37's?

I don’t think 37’s are necessary. I do all the trails I want with 35’s and still get decent mpg. I like taking longer trips sometimes so the mpgs help.

Gotcha, I don’t I’ll need 37’s either but love the look of the JL with them

Yeah I did. 5.13's. I also went 37's though haha.
Is 3.45 good for 35s for daily driving, sea level, occasional sand dunes, beach rides, fire trails, no rock crawling. I have the 3.6 L 8 speed Auto. Stock setup still on 33s but love the look of 25s with 2.5 inch lift.

I had read that the Sports get more lift due to generally having less weight. I guess a soft top on a Sport is about as light weight as you can go, but that amount of lift is still insane.
Planning on adding any gear? I'd also think a track bar might be more important in this situation.

I have added a few pieces of steel over the years. Slides, bumper/ winch. It settled some too and I think is a great height. About 30k miles on the lift now.

You could probably get away with 35’s and the 3.45 gears with the auto. It wasn’t the best with the manual.
