Question About Tires
I have an '06 grand cherokee laredo everythings stock right now and i dont have tons of money for upgrades but i need new tires. i want to go as big as possible in off-roading tires, and i was thinkin about getting 2 inch body spacers. i have 17" rims and want something like 31" or 33" tires. i need advice about what would be best.

Get a budget lift which is coil spacers front and rear and add say 2" and run 31" tires. Something like a 265/70R-17 would be close to a 31x10.50 tire. Rough Country makes a 2" lift for about $150..Tires are what will cost you since they are 17" rims.

he has independent front suspension so even a BB is different and can seriously effect his driving if done poorly. You need spacers for the rear and strut extensions for the front, you can get kits that have all teh parts.
