IDK what kind of tire carrier you think your getting in that budget, but a 37 CAN rip the tire carrier off. If it does, you can have mine, just saying. Also, with such a new suspension, for a little more than bumpstops you could do a 1" body lift and easily fit those tires, keep a low CG and rock on.

I'm looking at 35's for a 2 door, not 37's for a 4 door.

Well shit, son!!! Load em up!!! I still think in your climates, trimmed fenders might not be the rout to take- a 1" body lift will keep the slush out of your face.

LOL! I'm still looking at options, the Teraflex leveling kit for $130 would be an option, 2" in front and 1" in back.

If a little extra money is available, a pair of JKS ACOS is a good option for the front, IMO.

They look nice, but at that price I would rather save for a spring lift.

Of course. I did a 18/59 coil and shock (55 miles) swap for $140, JKS ACOS for $210, and a pair 3/4 inch rear spacers for $30.
