I have a 2024 Mojave. Just put in the AEV Mojave 2" spacer lift. along with the AEV geometry correction brackets. Was going to get rimms next, but wanted to see if anyone had advice on 20 inch rims vs 18? Advantage, disadvantage? I have the 3.6 pentastar, so the 2" lift already brought me down 2mpg on gas. Is performance and suspension health the more better with the 18's? Or 20's will only make a slightly worse impact?

I think most people here will recommend a 17 inch wheel, with that size you will find the largest selection of both wheels and tires, plus from an offroad/ride perspective, more sidewall. My 80th Anniversary JL came with 18s and sucked trying to find tires I liked for it.

That set up you have looks amazing! Great to hear the Fuel Shok rimms are working for you. I might go with the 20's, but you are really selling me on the 17"s. How is your gas milage?

Better than I expected. I have averaged 18.1 for the last 5000 miles. 80% of my driving is interstate. I have the Max Tow with the 4.10 gears. I do drive like an old man, lol. I do not have a heavy foot. Make sure you get your Jeep programmed for the larger tires. It helps.

Nothing screams poser more than 20s on a jeep. Completely ruins the look

i am new here. Just bought a 2020 sport S with 37” tires running on Fuel 17” rims. The Sport S has the max tow package. Trying to figure out if there is any lift at all. It looks like it has stock shocks and springs based on the part numbers I have seen. I would have thought it would need a lift. There is no rubbing when I turn.

17s for sure. Try to find a positive off set if you can. no neg off set. I got the Methods with 0 off set and they poke out a little more than I really like but looks great.
