Well I did it. i had the 3.5 lift put on . I already had BFG ko2 37 x 12.5 onthe stock suspension and it was pretty cool big ol tires stuffed into the wheel wells. But when i was off road the other day and crossing some diagonal eroded ditches on the trail with the sway bar disconnected it rubbbed alot. So that convinced me to follow through. I was just going to use wheel spacers, becasue I liked the wheel a lot especialy after I painted the silver parts to match the rest of the wheel so they are all black. But no one had any spacers so I ended up buying 5 new Method race wheels that were simila, and all black.
Supposedly you can run lower off road tire pressures becasue of some sort of quasi bead lock technology ? Not a bead lock but like a super tight fit? according to the shop owner. I don't know for sure how it works.
The lift is very good. rides just a bit better than stcok haven't really tested it off road yet, and tires stick out just a bit. NO Bro dozer look! Here are some pictures. What does evey one run as tire pressure.? The shop ahd my tires at 44 psi,. I dropped them to 39 and will likley drop them again to 34.
