I have a bone stock 1999 TJ 4.0 automatic, including the stock 15x7 wheels with tires that are approximately 27" in diameter. I drive on the road 99.9% of the time and I'm never going to do any off-roading (I've driven through grass and whatnot). There is a 0% chance of me disconnecting the sways to go off-road, and I'm not concerned about articulation or anything like that. I'm just concerned with how it looks and rides.
That being said, it looks ridiculous on such small tires. I'm planning on getting some Cragar Soft 8s (15x8, 4" BS) and 32" or 33" tires, and I need a lift to accommodate the new wheels and tires.
Here are my concerns:
1) Ride quality
2) Price
3) Minimal (if possible) modifications aside from springs and shocks (i.e. motor mount lifts, dropping the transfer case, etc.)
I've done some reading and have seen several recommend the Zone 4.5" (3" + 1" BL) but I'd like to avoid the body lift if possible.
Can I get away with a 2" or 3" lift without rubbing? If so, what are your recommendations (brand, etc.)?
