How is the brake clearance with 15s? I would love to go to 15s but I also want my brakes to breathe.

Not sure, i def would like to find out also. It looks like 501 has what i would like, maybe he can put in his lol......but i did find this forum http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=50344 kinda answers my questions. The more i browse the forums the more i am drawn to getting a lift....maybe a clevis lift?......

liquid,

what lift are you running? i like the look of yours.

Yeah 501s pics are what is making me consider 245 75 16 tires.

Im running a frankenlift premium 2 with JBA UCAs. The tires are 245 70 16 look a bit smaller, but not terrible. Definitely want some soft 8s though. As for clevis lifts I cant help there, but frankenlifts (full OME now) make the jeep handle and drive ALOT better. Well worth the time and money.

How many inches of lift does the frankey II get you......2-3?

We do have a wheel and tire section you know
and stock the wheels 501 has would rub unless you only park it in the front yard

Well I was around the high 17in low 18in range stock, now Im 23.5 front 21.2ish in the rear (need rear isos bad). I love it but I really need to twist her up to break it in more.



Yeah 245 75 16s are way to big for stock KJs, I believe the tallest tire is a 235 85-16 which is a 29.8ish in tire.

Yeah i found the answers to my questions in the tires section, sorry guys should have researched the forums more.....

Not a problem at all really. I know first hand when your new and want answers ya want them right now. I found with a bit of carefull reading and or research you will find just about everything ya want to ask when new, already asked somewhere
As far as your rims go I wish I had a set of belly button soft 8 to dish off to ya as I would trade ya in a second for those factory aluminum rims. Like I said already I would consider doing something different with your factory rims, as there is nothing wrong with them. Maybe doing them in black with the aluminum ring on the outsdie or going full black but I know what I would do But also to each his or her own which is what makes owning a Jeep so fun but is also why I choose to do things a lil different if and when I can Have fun and good luck

I say keep your rims and black them out, maybe keep the brushed aluminum outside ring around it. Do something different other than those rims every one is running. 245 70 16 fit stockers just fine, I ran mine from about 20,000 miles to just recently at 41,000 roughly then got lifted. Prior to the lift I had no rubbing at all but then again this has been discussed in the tire section many times.

Another reason to do soft 8s or moabs is to lessen or possibly fix the sway bar rubbing at full lock. Other then looks thats my main reason.
