how much lift when going to 18" wheels & 35" tires?
I have a 08 Rubicon UNlimited. I was thinking about going to 35's in the future.
People tell me that I would need a 2.5" lift. And that I will need wheel spacers if I keep my stock wheels. If I don't want wheel spacers I would have to buy new wheels.
