Default first jeep!! first car!!

I have a black 2012 2-door Sport S. Have only had it for maybe 4 months. and oh ya, not to mention, very first car ever!!! and i have only had my license for 8 months. i am extremely lucky lol

now to the jeep. i would like to run 35x12.50x17 and wanted to know if anyone had any suggestions as to which suspension lift to get. i am mainly going to use the car as my daily driver to school and back everyday. so i need something that can handle very well on the roads. i have already taken it mudding 3 times, so it will go off road every so often. so you dont have to scream mall crawler lol

I dont need all the bells and whistles. i just need something to lift it up, but i need a reliable lift as i will use the jeep everyday to school. i have heard mixed rumors about diffrent lifts (there are lots of jeeps around here). so if anyone could provide some input it would be greatly appreciated

thanks for reading

Yes I didn't mean to call it a car. I was just trying to say that it is my first automobile ever. And I'm happy that it is a jeep lol

Thank you! What is the typical backspacing for 35s? Like 4 maybe?
