Thanks for all the replys guys.
Its reassuring me alot.
I might check out some cheap leveling kits or 1" pucks untill I can make me some thicker coil spacers and get my tracking bars and everything. And JPop would disconnects be necessary without offroading?

If you aren't taking your rig off road disconnects aren't necessary. Also what you can get away with as far as clearance is a lot different for on and off road use. Off road you will assuredly rub even with flat flares and 35s without other modifications. You need to trim the rear pinch seam on or off road and preferably add some rear bumpstop. With front sway bar disconnects, you will need a leveling kit, a body lift or extra front bumpstop.

Oh ok.
Yea I plan on making 2" coil spacers for my jeep to lift it up and maybe make the bump stop to and buy everything else I need. Maybe I can steer clear of trimming flares if I make my bump stops a little long?
As of right now im not really much of a heavy rock crawler kinda guy. I prefer mud and clay but I do enjoy small bumpy obstacles every now and again.

Save yourself the money on tires and buy retreads.

Its what im planning on doing when its time for new tires. People go back and fourth saying they are not safe but read up on the reviews of people who have owned them and its hard to find complaints. And at 160 a tire your left with enough just in savings to get a lift.
Just an idea

You say you are planning on getting a lift -- Why? Are you planning on doing some more aggressive wheeling and need the clearance?
thanks
