Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Default lift and tire pics

I have a Silver Sahara Unlimited on the way and would like to see pictures of an unlimited with a 2" lift with 305's or 315's on stock wheels. Thanks for all of the good information.

If you look on my.project-jk.com you can see my Sahara with a 3" and 35" on the stock wheels:

No problem and no problems! Have always ran larger tires on the stock wheels without any issues. I've always like the look of the stock wheel with the larger tire and have ran this setup on several past jeeps as well with no problems.

The tires are 35x12.5x18 Cooper STT's, they measure 12.5" wide and about 34.85" tall. Allot of people have been putting the Toyos on the stock wheels which are about 13.2" wide so the stock wheels will support a slightly larger tire/width as well as have seen 37" on the stock wheels.

What brand lift is that? I have always settled with the spacer lift on my TJ`s because I can run 33`s and still have the ride quality of a stock vehicle. My wife has a JK Rubi coming in a couple of weeks and since it will be the "family" car, I dont want to go with something that is too harsh. When I get my hands on it (in a couple of years) I will change some stuff out. Also, I am wondering about voiding the warrenty since people seem to be having a few problems with the JK.

it is a 3" Teraflex. Stayed at 3" as not to void warranty since i got extended 7Yr/100k warranty and dealer would void with anything higher than 3" and 35"s plus did not want bigger for all the highway driving I do.

Did you have to use spacers with the factory wheels? If I go with a 2" BB and Cooper 285's stt (which there web site says are a true 33" tall) should i need spacers? Thanks
