I am running thestage 8 kit, Rides and drives like factory. However with the adjustable shocks not as bouncy. Handles great on the most messed up roads I could find in the city. Have not gone off-road yet. Lots going on at home. (Re-model) will give up date on off-road handling when I can

I am evaluating the Icon vs the Mopar with additional parts, I'm also a little iffy on what 35s would look like with the 2.5 Icon Lift. I have 35s now and am not interested in going to 37s before I wear out the 35s, and not sure I want to go bigger after that anyways.

Would love to see photos of a Rubicon with the 2.5 Icon lift on 35s.
He is my truck with the Icon stage 8 on 35’s

Doesn't their lift's offer adjustable lift height? Maybe that was for a different vehicle. Looks sweet! I wonder if it would be too much for 33's

No. It’s a 2.5 lift

What offset do you have for those wheels? Is it same as factory? Assuming your 12.5 wide? Would you be able to run chains without rubbing at full stuff and full lock? Also curious if you are using the stock sway's.

I ordered the Sport S with Max-Tow so have the same width axles as the Rubicon. Probably going to go with the stage 8 as well with anti-rocks, but only 33's instead. Personally I have a great dislike for 12.5 wide tires and wand to keep it at 10.5, or maybe 11. I'm thinking with the smaller tire there would be better clearance options but was curious what you had going on with that.

Sorry I don’t remember the offset. I had to sign a document that I would never use chains. At purchase. I used the full stage 8 kit, using the stock sway bars. Works great. The kit is set up for 35’s. Never rub with the 35’s

who made you sign a document to never use chains?? The dealer or Icon? I can't imagine Jeep would say that, that sounds weird... Chains are a requirement in my area.

Interesting. I would not have signed such a document. I dont think that's even a justifiable thing for the dealer to do. Did they say that because of the lift? Seems sketchy that Jeep would tell you you can't use chains when there are hundreds of mountain passes that require chains to be in your vehicle and available for use during the winter.

Wondering if anyone has photos of the Icon 2.5 lift with 35s on a Rubicon? Also interested to see what everyone thinks of the lifts now that they've had them for a little while.
I have the Icon stage 8 with 35’s. Like others have said handles like a sports cars. Perfect off road for 35’s.
