35's and 2.5 inch front lift for over 2 years on Sport, no re-gearing. Lost about 2mpg, however I still got 22mpg on last road trip. I mostly average 19 mpg combined in the summer, 17 mpg in the winter. Factory wheels/tires make the truck look disappointing for that price range.
Jeep is not as reliable as a Toyota (see consumer reports) but is way more fun. My visor and tailgate lock broke down în the first year, but where else can you find a convertible pickup? The build quality feels cheap but hopefully the powertrain is solid.
Why not? Great headlight visibility improvement for $70. Jeep people get ripped off on alot of aftermarket stuff. Headlights don't have to be one of them.
You'll regret not getting 35's. I got the Ridge Grappler with 3.73 gears. I lost 2 MPG's and no problems keeping 8th gear on flat ground. If you have alot of hills or if you tow alot then re-gear or stay with factory tires. The difference in weight between 33's and 35's is not that big.
I got a base Sport with no options and added what I wanted. Love the manual windows. Only wished I bought the Max Tow. Last year they reduced the base Sport to $30,000 when nobody was shopping. Prices might be different today.
