im sure this has been asked 1000 times, but i am trying to figure out the best setup for 33's on my wife's new Sahara. not going to be off road much, more of a daily driver but i don't want to run into issues if we do take it off road. Not a big fan of lifts the are too big for the tire installed either. any info or good pictures of a unlimited on 33s would help. not sure if a 2.5 would look too odd with 33s or not..just looking for a good end result picture so my wife can see what i am looking to do for her. i know stocks are 32 inches...but again, more a daily driver but want that nice jeep look too.

You need a leveling kit and wheels with 4.75" or less back spacing. All of this is covered in a sticky in modified tech I think.

i saw the basic info i the sticky, just want to see a few pictures and hear some testimonials/experience with the setup

Yup I wouldn't go more than leveling kit if its mainly a dd and rare offroad. Heck you wouldn't even need that even

Here's mine with 32" tires and a 2.5" lift. Not exactly what your looking for, but it'll give you an idea.

I'm running 34's with the aev 2.5" lift. They look slightly undersized unless I have the top off. Had 32's with my leveling kit and they looked way to small. I would say a leveling kit with 33's would make the perfect DD.

For 33's you don't need a lift. 1.5" wheel spacers will give a better look and prevent possible rubbing of rubber on suspension.








33's with TF 2.5" coil lift & 9500 shocks.
If you plan on bumpers and winch, it's better to go with coil springs than budget boost spacers. If you rarely wheel, don't spend money on any lift. But if you want to get rid of the nose down rake, just place a 1" puck spacer in front between the coil spring and frame. Understand that anything other than stock will affect your mpg.

Edit: trying to remove last pic but fail.

Scroll down to JK Show & Tell. Stickied at the top is the show off threads, which are divided into various catagories, --> including 33" tires with various lift heights.

This is what I would do if you only plan on running 33's.

305/70 r17 ~33s with a 2.5 bb. My DD and do zero off roading so far. I like my setup but will most likely go with 35s next time.
