I want to lift my jeep, but i just bought new tires last year and they are 235/70/16 so they will be to small with a 2inch lift. Is there anywhere i can sell my tires so i have money to buy bigger tires.

Of course there is. There's a classified section here, there's Craigslist, etc.

With a 2" lift it won't look that bad.. I did the same thing but with 245-70-16 tires then lift.

I sported that size for a few months with a 4" lift. You embrace the look. Other Jeepers know the transition and have been there too.

Craigslist and other sites you may have around where you live are the best to sell the tires if you want. Lots of folks have ran smaller diameter tires for a while after lifting though

Gage will eventually see this. He's running stock sized 225/75-16 BFGs with 2.5" of lift. You can always sell them on the forum in the classifieds, on craiglist, etc.

Think I will install the lift and when I save up enough money I will sell the tires and buy bigger ones
