There's a big difference between "will they fit" and "how much flex will I have?" You can fit 32s under a 3" lift, probably with no trimming. If your gonna wheel it and want decent flex, start cutting. Prob 2-3"

Hope this is right spot for this question, I just bought a bone stock 95 xj wanted to put somewhere around 4.5" of lift but my wife drives it also so it has to be safe for my family and drive good down the highway! Any suggestions? Thanks

mine's fine at 4.5-5" and 33s at 70+ mph...I drive it every day without issue and never feel like I'm in any more danger than at stock height. If it's built right and set up properly it'll be as good if not better than stock.

I suggest a 3" lift and 30-31" tires.

Does the RC double shear track bar NEED a drop pitman arm because it drops the mount so much? I'm thinking about getting it to run at 5.5 inches
