As far as tire prices go mine were $632 out the door.
Sorry that was meant for the guy that asked the question.

4 inch lift with 285's?
So I have a 2001 Jeep Cherokee Limited.
I have a 3 inch pro comp lift with 1 inch coil spacers.
I want to get Treadwrights but I'm not sure what do get 265 or 285.
Will 285's fit?
I'm also running a 16 inch soft 8

check my lift!!!
hey guys im still pretty new here and dont post much. i did some reading and decided to piece together my own lift kit. my primary use is a daily driver and it may see some light to medium trails and mud. im currently running 30x9.5 dunlop mud rovers. tire clearance isnt an issue becuase theyre already on with my stock suspension now. heres what i have to start and will add some upgrades down the line. just would like a few of you to take a look and tell me what you think. thanks guys!

- IRO Front coil springs (3 or 4 inch pending shackle)
-YJ front brake lines

I do plan on buying control arms I just haven't decided what company I would like to buy from. And I do have the convince of another vehicle to drive while my jeep is down. Can you please explain why I'm better off buying a kit and maybe suggest one yourself?

I don't mind things taking a little bit longer. Based on what I wanted I came up with that list. I did look at a kit but I didn't see any thing that included all of those items for under a grand. I know Im gonna need arms, bumpstops, track bar and things along those lines. That's just my list to start. I wanted other opinions and suggestions. I don't think I'll buy a kit unless I get most of what I want for a good price. There's a lot of nice kts out there an every time I research it comes back that at least one component is junk. That's understandable for the price range I have been looking at. And that's why Ive been heavily leaning towards putting together my own kit. I'm definitely gonna give clayton a look. I've been looking at iron man Andy's arms too. Thanks for the input

anyone run into this problem?
my rear wheels are not center in the wheel well. i know the right rear end cap slides around cause i blew it off when i got stuck, but the left rear, all plastics are tight.
i am curious because im looking into lift kits and if the read wheels are sitting back too far then i know ill run into drive line vibes. i dont think an aal or another leaf pack will fix this. i was thinking possibly the rear springs are on backwards or something else? it doest dog walk
ive been looking at everyones lifted pics and they are centered and more forward in the fender wheels.
what and where do i measure to get the ride height and whats stock height? i remember something about center of rim to bottom of fender. im curious to see if it has a 1" lift already
