Everyone has their own opinions. In my experience most people always want to go BIGGER and aren't satisfied with a budget boost. But don't go t CHEAP on a jeep you drive every day. You will hate the ride and never want to drive it... that said you can't go wrong with a Teraflex or Old Man Emu lift. Both perform very well on and off road and on a JK 3-4" of lift gives you alot of options. WHen you start getting into 4" lifts you need to start really considering upgraded driveshafts, slip yoke elimination, and will probably mean more $$$ in the fine tuning dept.
I would recomend a 3" kit for starters. Alot of people have the 4's and wheel hard but I wouldn't. The 3" kit w/35's is an INCREDIBLE great riding solution.
Or you could just cut tot the chase and get a long arm kit and D60's, new drieveshafts and a hemi and call it done!!!
