Comments on: 10 Reasons to Install a Lift Kit in Your Jeep http://www.jeepreviews.com/blog/jeep-mods/10-reasons-to-install-a-lift-kit-in-your-jeep/ User reviews of Jeep parts and accessories Wed, 25 Jan 2012 20:24:16 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Alyson Doherty http://www.jeepreviews.com/blog/jeep-mods/10-reasons-to-install-a-lift-kit-in-your-jeep/comment-page-1/#comment-574 Alyson Doherty Mon, 01 Aug 2011 01:00:49 +0000 http://www.jeepreviews.com/blog/?p=52#comment-574 Garrett, I have a 99 Jeep Wrangler and am seriously thinking about putting a lift kit on it and larger tires. I off road at least once a week and I don't have to commute far for work so I figured that a lift would do me good! I don't have a huge amount of money to spend so I was looking into putting a 2'' lift with 32x12 tires. Would those tires be too big for that lift? Also, what do you think about the trailmaster 2'' Spring Spacer Lift Kit with SSV shocks? I look forward to hearing our feedback! Thank you! (btw...im sure you could tell but im very inexperienced with this whole thing!) Garrett,

Good luck! Grant,

However, with a 10.5" wide tire on stock TJ rims you may get some rubbing when making sharp turns. If this does happen, you can add some washers to your steering stops to eliminate the issue. Grant,

Firestone rear air bags in coils, 1 3/4" front coil spacers, Rancho RS9000XL shocks. Total lift approx. 2 1/2" rear & 2" front. Warn M8000 winch w/roller fairlead, Warn winch mount plate. 3" Cold air intake, K&N conical filter, chipped, throttle body spacer, etc.. Trailer hitch, 1999 stock TJ mags with BFG AT/TA tires - LT 235/75R15's (1" smaller circumference than the stock tires - got a deal on all four of them). Anyway my QUESTIONS are: can I go to 31x10.5x15's the way the Jeep is now? Or how large of a tire can I use without any more mods unless they are minor ones?

Some people go up to 30" tires, but the general consensus is that you'll get a little rubbing with 30s. Unfortunately, Cherokees don't have as much clearance as Wranglers in their stock form.
