im gettin new tires within the next few days..either 33s or 35s.
i already have a 2.5inch teraflex lift and wheel spacers.
im keepin the stock rims, which size would be best?

 

Depends.....is your 2.5" Teraflex kit the spacers or the coils?

Spacers:

Get 33's because 35's will most likely rub when you're flexed...

Coils:

35's would be good and shouldn't rub much if at all...

 

are you willing to fork over the money to change your gears? i had the stock 4:10 gears and put 35's on--the jk turned into a dog!!!

i put 5:13's in and it put the rpm's back to stock. the re gearing cost me $1,250.00; i was hesitant at first, but i am glad i did it.

i initially was going to go with 33" tires because i didnt want to deal with re gearing, but i am happy with my current set up.

i have the teraflex 2.5" hd budget boost (3" front coils) and had to only trim the rear pinch seam a bit. hope this helps.

 

will i have to regear no matter what with the 35s?

 

It's gonna be much more noticeable if you have an auto trans...the automatic eats up more of the available power so you'll notice more of a difference.

If it's a 6-speed, it won't be as bad....but it'll be one of those things you'll want to do someday down the road I'm sure.

 

I was in the same boat about a year ago 35's or 33's I wasn't to worried about gearing (I have a 6spd w/ 4.10) I was more worried about MPG. This is what convinced me to go to 35's. If you're considering them now go with them because if you get 33's you're not going to be completely happy with it then want to change your mind later down the road. I'm kickin myself in the ass now for not going with 37's
