Default Pics of 2,5" lift kit with stock tires

I'm looking for pics of the JK with stock 255/75 R17 tires lifted with 2,5" lift kit, possibly from the front side or back side, to have an idea about how mine would look (I've the 2 door) once lifted (some of you posted pics in the past, but only taken from the side, not front or back).
Thanks for your help.

I had mine like that for about 2 months. It was really embarrassing. It looks weird. I didn't take any pictures because it looked that weird. Now I have 35s

2.5 suspension coils and shocks only (going to 33" tires in a week or so)

The matter is that I already have the lift kit, but I'm not planning to change tires for the moment (it is not like in US, to make it simple, just let's say in Italy it is not possible to go above 255/75 17 if you want to adhere to the law).
Therefore the choice I have for the moment is: keep it stock or at least install the 2.5" lift kit instead of keeping it in a corner in my garage?
I'm deciding this and I've doubts since I don't want my JK looks worst than without the lift.

Personally I think it looks great with the stock tires and a 2.5" lift. I'd be doing it if i had the money!!!

Is it a 2dr?

Here is mine! Don't think it looks bad at all with stock tires.

I have a 4 door and am holding off until I have the tires... it looks kind of funny to me sitting on top of the stock tires... just my opinion.
