Flame Red Sahara with 3" lift and 305/65R18 Falken Wild Peak A/T
So I finally installed my lift and put my tires on. I purchased various components to put the lift together. So I guess you could call it a Frankenlift. 3" spacer front, 2.5" spacer rear, Teraflex shock extensions, Teraflex bump stops, Northridge Adj sway bar links, Rough Country Adj front Trackbar, rear teraflex trackbar drop bracket... I wanted to keep the stock wheels so I through on some spidertrax wheel spacers to fit the Falken Wild Peak A/T tires.. they measure 33.5" installed.. I wasn't to sure about these tires as I wanted an aggressive tire, but pictures don't do these tires justice. They are really a sexy looking tire in person!!! very happy with them..

When I got my '11 Sahara JKU Nat Green Pearl in January, they had a flame red Sahara with matching hard top and was very very sharp. If it had leather and gps and remote start and all the other options that my green one did, I might have went with the red one. My very first Jeep was a '97 TJ Sport which was flame red and I loved that Jeep! You have a sharp looking Jeep there. The lift and tires look great!

excited to see this set up. I'm running falken rocky mtn 285/70/17 (Discount Tires' exclusive) and they do look great in person. I can't decide if I want to go with a 2.5" or 3" lift so maybe this will help my decision a bit. These tires perform AMAZING on road and even better off.

Thanks guys!! I also just finished removing the rear spare tire carrier and attaching the Poison Spyder Tramp Stamp with license plate relocation. I removed license plate bracket and filled hole with a plug sold by the dealership... I really like the clean look.. will post pictures of this as well...

Iv been considering the same type of tire but in a 265/ size for mine.
I want to keep the stock 18 s but add coil spacer instead of going to a full lift.
