Default 3" lift on Rubicon with stock tires

So I want (eventually) to do a 3" lift with 35" MTs, but I cannot afford the whole thing now. If I just put the lift on now and run the stock Rubicon tire, will that look really dumb? Any safety issues?

I need to spread out my purchases.

I am sure plenty will tell you it looks pathetic with 32's. But I plan on running my stockers when my OME lift gets here regarless of the finger pointing and laughing that I'm sure will take place...

I have owned 2 HD series Chevy Crew Cab diesel pickup's that run stock doughnuts; I mean real pizza cutters here, and I was able to just laugh it off...

I will do the same with my JK for a while atleast!

im sure many people have had to run the stock tires on a big life for some time as long as you can get the 35s within a month or two you will not be rejected to much humiliation

You just need to let it slide off you... Kind of like I do!
