If you are planning on mostly street I would get a spacer lift and keep stock coils for ride quality.I also have 2 inch body lift and cut .5 to 1 inch out of fenders to clear tires.Most of my photos failed to download.I put one on skinny 38 boggers dont rub on street but rub hard off road.High clearance fenders are another option.AEV high clearance fendears allow 34 inch tire with no lift.Very pricey though.

added a couple photos one has 33s one has 35s with 33 sitting next to itand the 38 bogger.all photos jeep has same lift.I have never been a fan of lift it for looks though.everything you do to improve off road performance will hurt on road handling.you didnt ask but fuel economy dropped by 15% with 33s another 15% with 35s the 38s got 50% of stock.i have to do brakes every 30 to 40 k tie rods also.dont know if these are important to you or not.its just the price you pay for having big tires.i posted a link to a vid of my jeep.do you think you need 35s?
