A leveling kit with 33's is nice but I still rub when stuffed.

I will soon get a 2.5 lift with 33's that way when I add bumpers I won't lose so much clearance that I rub off road

Here this may help.

33's no lift.


33's no lift with Bushwackers.


33's with TF 2.5.


35's with TF 2.5 and TF 1" spacers.

I couldn't decide between 33's or 35's, so went with the Toyo 295/70/17. I think it is about 34.2". I love it. Sorry for the bad pic, only one I could find.

Good looking JKU. I have the same wheels on mine and keep kicking around the idea of powder coating my JKU Sahara wheels black too. Can I asked what you did for black lug nuts? Did you buy new black ones, if so who makes them? Did you paint? Powdercoat?

Terra flex 2.5 coil lift with my stock km's
I personally don't see the fender gap as an issue... but my rims make the tires look smaller than the stockers imo

I must be in the minority but I like the look with the extra fender gap, it is the look I am going for.

Thanks! I bought white knight black locking lug nuts from fortec4x4.com. Also my rims were painted by a autoshop here in Atlanta
