If you only want to do 35's then i would recommend a 2.5 lift, i think it looks great together. If you go 3.5 you might want 37's. If you wont be doing anything serious than 35's will be plenty for you.

Just to give you some perspective, here's 35" toyo on 18" monster xds with a 2.5" teraflex lift with bilstein 5100 shocks. Good compromise if you're trying to stay at or below 2.5" of lift

I did not add anything to front to cause it. Customer service was horrible and eventually had to put spacers in.
The future wife owns a 2007 Rubicon.
I bought the 2013 Rubicon Unlimited for the longer wheel base and now it has more horses. I did not care for the bouncy ride the sport gave me with 35's
I travel allot for work and just want a good looking lifted jeep to run around in, when I am at home.
Again I appreciate the help.

Thanks, Appreciate the pictures. Gotta love the lifted jeeps!!
I took the big leap and ordered the Rock Krawler 3.5 X Factor Mid arm system with Fox 2.0 Shocks.
Ordered it from Sean at Northridge. Good guy and easy to deal with.
