Wheels and tires ordered

[Pdiehm]

Finally! 17x9 and 285/70.

I sit here and wonder if a 2” spacer lift such as the Teraflex or AEV would look too big with the 33” tires?

Don’t want that skipping leg day look.

I'd go w/ a Rubicon takeoff suspension, would look proper w/ your new tires and perform a bit better than the spacer setup. Also keep OEM parts for less potential warranty issues.

Yes, here's my install thread, takes about 3 hrs give or take. Quite a few sets for sale usually on this site, might get lucky and have a set nearby.
