Would getting a lift put in before you put on new/larger rims/tires look dumb?

Thanks for the feedback. I don't mind spending the money on my JK, I am just new to owning a Jeep so I am trying to determine what I want for a lift and for rims/tires.

Here is a X model with stock tires and a 2.5 inch lift. I should be getting new tires and wheels within a month, but I put the lift on first.

Right now I am liking the look of the ProCom 7105 in cast black. I just have no idea what size to buy

Look around and do a search .I also bought a jeep and did not know that much.I bought my 33" tires first and will get my soon.Hope this helps and good luck.

I put a 2" BB with shocks and went to 33x12.50x17 tires and used the stock Moab rims. It looks pretty good. But like what was posted before go with what you want, like, and can afford....But beware once you start modding it's hard to stop. I have had my JK for a year now and wound up spending around $4000 on mods....

I bought my Jeep, got it lifted 4", drove it for 34 days (Daily Driver) Then went overseas, now 10 months later I am going home for a vist and I am going to get the 35"s tucked under it. I got alot of comments from folks like" Oh man, that will look better with bigger tires" All I could say was, "Yeah, where is your Jeep"? And of course they were driving a rice rocket or S-10, so they shut there mouth.

(This Post was not intended to hurt the feelings of ANYONE that has an S-10 or a Ricer, it was just to point out that they are not Jeeps)

I just ordered my OME from Northridge a few days ago and its going to be at least a month before I can swing rims/tires.....The lift will go on ASAP..

Bottom Line, sometimes it is a necessity.... But yes....it looks rough....

Let's put it this way.....my wife said it looked bad....but she used another word

I don't think it looks too bad...been running this way for a few months now and will be this way until i have enough $$$ for new tires/wheels. Saving for AEV's and some 33" BFG's.
