I'm really happy with 33's (Trail Grapplers) and a 2.5 coil lift. Its my budget build, lots of pics in my profile. Ride is like stock. You can see plenty of pics on the forum with this setup.

I went 35s right off the bat on my 2010 auto/4.10s because i knew I wouldn't be happy with 33s. I had absolutely NO plans to regear and bought a superchips flashpaq....I lasted about 6 months before I was scheduling a gear install. 35s/4.10s/auto annoyed me to no end. Highway driving was miserable even with OD off.

It is great now but if I were you I would plan on gears just in case.

Truth. I can deal with the uphill struggle but if I happen to find a deal on gear I will not hesitate. It's really not bad around town or on slower highways. Hell, I drive it all over the country a few months ago and it wasn't bad. I think auto,s may be different. Never been in one though

I have a 2011 JKU auto with 4:10s with 2.5 tf and 35'' duratracs.....I was very worried that i wouldnt have any power. I can honestly say that I dont even notice when leaving a stoplight or driving in town. I drive about 90 highway miles at about 65 or so every weekend. Very hilly, I dont really notice the power loss but the downshifting is annoying. If you dont drive it like a racecar, you prob wont notice much.

Also, my average mpg in city driving is 14.5, my average on the highway is 16. I regret nothing.
