Rubi wheels need Rubi Shocks?
 
Howdy folks I swapped my 15 X 8 canyon wheels and 30 inch tires off my 03 TJ
Sport, for some 16 X 8 rubicon wheels and 31 tires. What I noticed right off
the bat was the increased weight. I'm wondering if I should shop for a set of
rubicon shocks off ebay due to the weight increase? Thanks in advance.

shocks on eBay? sounds to me like buying used underwear.

The added weight is under the shocks as unsprung weight ... how will new
shocks do anything? -- except for the weight of a spare.
