245/75R16 will NOT rub with a 2.5" lift. The speedo is only off by a few MPH, not a big deal at all. The ESP kicking in only happens at low speeds, I have learned to ignore it.

Regret?

Who regrets this?!

I'm only lifted 2" w hankook dynapro atm's and have never rubbed. My biggest issue is the esp going off every now and then with the bigger tires. * I do not condone this nor reccomend this* but a solution to kill all esp and abs operation is to pull the J6 fuse, but that is at your own risk.

i have a black renegade (same year).

i think i'm sold on the tire/lift setup i want now. can you post more pics?

Thanks for all of the feedback folks! Right now I am leaning toward the lift, just need to think on it a little more. The ESP is the main thing bugging me, but I'm sure I would get used to it, or just turn it off like DirtyKK does.

Can't argue with the looks, Marlon_JBT! It makes a huge difference. They really should have offered a mild lift option from the factory.
