Im looking for a set of rims with a 3.25/75 and i wanna know what rim size is the best. As in do 15in rims only go up to 35's? Can a 16 go higher than 35? I just wanna get the right size for future upgrades and all.
Budget is a factor and was looking at Cragar soft 8s like everyone else
You can double check the exact difference on tirerack.com or something but all im saying is tires for a 16 inch rim are more expensive and also fewer tires come in a 16...there will be fewer options regarding actual tire model and brand and if you're looking at used suv/truck/jeep tires they'll be harder to find...

If I had the choice I might not go 16s...if you do just know that tires will cost more for 16s than 15s due to supply and demand...trust me, my jeep came with 16s. And I love them, but when I get new tires I'll hate them...not a ton more expensive but probs over $60 more for a set of 4....

15's are fine, 16 17" rubber get's real expensive real fast.

Just ordered a rough country 3 inch lift. Comes with coils, shackles, shocks and add a leaf. What's a good track bar for this kit? Also it's there anything else i should get? I'm going to go with long arms down the road but i don't go wheeling just want look good and be able to fit 33's (with a little bit of fender trimming of course). Thanks
You will also need longer rear brake lines. Soft line and e-brake cables.

I haven't needed a longer e brake line at 4" rear lift but as for brake lines, yes. Rear brake for sure and fronts can be relocated

That's probably why i don't need it. Mines goes under exhaust. Even one a lift that's when its mated out but normal conditions its got slack. Def something to check out for people when they lift. A longer line wouldn't hurt plus you can probably keep it out the way from getting caught up

Sure, it will only reverse the comression/rebound valving.
I don't think it would affect that...it would still be compressing and decompression as normal...
Also im accidentally messing up the quote system...
