Lift/Wheels/Tires Help, I'm a noob.
I'm a pretty big noob at this kinda stuff. What's the minimum lift I can get to go with 35s without having to worry about rubbing or anything. I was thinkin a 2.5" Teraflex, but I really have no idea. Could you guys post some links and stuff to lifts that will be all good with 35s.
Also, best all terrain tires? Not looking for super expensive stuff here. Just stuff that is good and won't break. I've got about $750 set aside for a lift kit, although I would like to spend less.
Best budget lift? Best budget A/T tires? and What measurements or whatever would the wheels have to be for the tires you post......
How much should I expect yo pay for installation of all this stuff?
Sorry if I sound stupid.

labour is normally about 100 per hour, if you look at the different lift kits on quadratech you will see that they have an estimated install time. Just multiply the two and you will have a pretty good idea of install cost. try to do it yourself, shops rape you for install.

here are some pics of the 2.5 tera and 35 inch bfg km2's
i was saying that for all lifts sold by quadratech on the products page there is an estimated install time, based on what lifts you like you can estimate how much the labour will be to install each of them. for the actual purchase of the lift i would contract Dave at northridge as he will give u a good deal with free shipping.

So......would THIS or THIS be good?
Any I just figured an A/T would be good because it's my daily driver and I don't go off roadin a whole lot, jsut on the weekends and stuff. But if you know something I don't please let me know lol. I'm just tryin to learn all this.

Get the shocks. The TF 9550s have a much better ride than stock. I am very pleased with my 2.5" TF lift.
BFG KOs would be the best bet for the tires. Excellent life and great performance.

Warnings
Wheel adapters are designed primarily for decorative retrofitting of aftermarket wheels. They are not designed for heavy hauling or hard cornering, and low-quality wheel adapters may fail under these conditions. "Uni-lug" wheel adapters should be avoided. These adapters are meant to fit a variety of cars and adapt them to a common pattern. Uni-lug wheel adapters have slots rather than holes and may become misaligned by road debris, potholes, or other road hazards. If this misalignment occurs at highway speeds, the wheel adapter may fail and cause an accident.
