Default Put on 2.5 lift now what?

I put on the Rough Country 2.5 spacer lift. Left everything else factory. Going to put 305/70 17 on.

It is my wife's daily driver and was just wondering if I should put new track arms on or does it need it.

Going to do some offroading but not a lot. Any suggestions?

you'll be fine with the way it is now but as mentioned, you will want to recalibrate your speedo and if you can afford it, get some shock extensions or new longer shocks. also, i personally would recommend getting longer sway bar links if you have a rubicon.
