Thanks for adding the photos... got a side view of the jeep with the lift/wheels/tires. Those are the wheels I havent want for a long time now (wanted them for my titan but sold it for the jeep )
I notice your soft top doesnt go all the way down... Mine does the same but the videos I have seen the arms that are stick up are suppose to be flush with the box of the jeep (not sure what I should call it)

I just pulled her down quick and thats why she was up like that... its actually the wrong way to fold the top...
It makes a V instead of a W with the side rail things that clip into the window frame part (i know that prob doesnt make any sense)
check out the video on the jeep home website... it shows that you have to fold over the top part more then you would think and then everything sits flush... I will try to get some more pics up for you guys of the new setup when I have time... I am at work and I dont have much here (and at home my stupid resize program mspaint- doesnt work for some reason)
I should be able to get some new stuff up soon though...

well I was told today if I went with 35's I would have to change up my gearing cause my jeep would be a pig on gas and have no power. Anyone help me out with this?

tires
Down here in Calgary i have 33" Mickey Thompson MTZ on my 2 door. I held onto my stock wheels and tires in case i had to put them back on for the winter. I drove all last winter on my MTZ's and plan to do the same this winter. The only time i had an issue was heading through Canmore in a big storm. There was about 6 inches of snow down. My Jeep was too light for the 33x12.5 and i felt like i was floating on top of the snow. I was really surprised how well they worked. You have to use 4hi a fair bit but that goes with all rear wheel drive vehicles.
