Re: 2" Lift ?'s
Hey! I may be a little slow, but I'm consistent! I still think you have
the advantage with a "stock look" on a CJ. My Rubicon came with 5.0" BS
and 10.50" tires from the factory and they reach the edge of the 4"
factory flares (which are wider than the std. TJ flares). Any increase
in tire width or BS puts the tire outside the flare.
I agree with you on the "stock look".

Re: 2" Lift ?'s
I have a TJ and am now running tyres which would equate to 32x10.50 on
stock wheels and they don't stick out at all. In fact they are just
perfectly in line with the stock fender flare line. If the tyres were any
wider, they would stick out IMHO.

stock wheels and they don't stick out at all. In fact they are just
perfectly in line with the stock fender flare line. If the tyres were any
wider, they would stick out IMHO.

Re: 2" Lift ?'s
I have a TJ and am now running tyres which would equate to 32x10.50 on
stock wheels and they don't stick out at all. In fact they are just
perfectly in line with the stock fender flare line. If the tyres were any
wider, they would stick out IMHO.

Re: 2" Lift ?'s
I have a TJ and am now running tyres which would equate to 32x10.50 on
stock wheels and they don't stick out at all. In fact they are just
perfectly in line with the stock fender flare line. If the tyres were any
wider, they would stick out IMHO.
