How much lift will I gain?
I just bought a new 2014 JK Sport S in Anvil Clearcoat. It has 14's up front and 55's in the rear. I have the 18's and 59's from my 2013 JKU Freedom Edition and am thinking about swapping them out. So, back to the question. How much lift do ya'll think I will gain with this setup?

I did. That exact swap on my 2012 14/55 to 18/59 I gained 2.0 in the front and 1.5 in the back. I also had a heavy bumper and a winch. I also swapped to Rubi shocks at the same time.

I have a similar setup to what you're asking about. Went from 14/55s to 17/59s along with a 1" spacer up front. Aftermarket bumper/winch. Don't have a before but heres a pic for reference..

Thanks for all the feedback. I am looking to get a little more than that so, I will be springing for the BDS 3" lift again. This will make the 4th JK I will be putting this lift on. It has proven to be quite the lift for me anyway.
What are the 4 door spring sets going for on the open market? Since I won't be using them, I might as well sell them.
