Does anyone have any pictures of a Rubicon lifted 2.5-3" with the stock 32s still on?

I was able to get a nice deal on a 3" TeraFlex kit but won't be able to add 35s for another month or so. I'm thinking about installing the lift this weekend but I'll wait if it's going to end up looking goofy on the stock wheels.

Thanks!

I don't have any pics, but I have seen a couple, and it does look a little goofy.

don't do it. I saw a guy at lowe's with a jku rubi. he put a 3" tereflex on his with 31's and it looked terrible. I have 35's on my 2 door jk with no lift...

Thanks to everyone. I think it would look a little less awkward on a two door, but I'll be waiting anyways.

^^ that don't look bad...Just toss the lift on. It's just a month anyway. Then when your wheels come you strap up and your good to go.

Well, have a 2 door 2013 Gecho Green Sport up-fitted on Black-Firday with an AEV 2.0" spacer lift, Rubicon OE tires, and 5 AEV matte black Pintler wheels. I'll throw before and after pictures up when it's finished.

I think you can handle all the finger pointing and laughing for a month. If you have the time to lift it now then do it before something comes up.

It seems that would be the perfect Jeep was just slightly bigger tires... What did you guys run on that?

Customer wanted to keep the stock 32.2" tires, which we have done on a handful of those lifts. As I tell my customers, it is really one of those lifts where you can get away with functionality and look with keeping the stock Rubicon 32.2" tires or upgrading to a 35".

Here is a picture of the same AEV 2.5" suspension lift, but with 35" tires

Just one thing to add/think about. I would not have wanted to drive this with lift and stock tires/rims without wheel spacers. The sway bar links are too close for comfort to the inside of the rims on the rear.

Here is the last picture with 295/65/18 duratracs. (33)

Those pics are amazing!

They definitely look more like a Wrangler when they leave then when they come in.

I have the same bumper and I am wondering which Winch and Light setup you have on your Jeep?
