    Now you guys need to lift those and get some tires on them so you don't have 6" of ground clearance. :laugh:

    Yes sir.

    Yeah I know I'm debating on just getting a quick spacer lift with wheels and tires, or if I should wait to save my money and get my coilovers.

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.

    I would just get the coilovers and wait on the wheels and tires that way its done right the first time.

    I think that's what I'm gonna do but instead just wait until I have money for everything.

    What do you mean?

    You wouldn't gain ground clearance from the lift, you would gain it from the bigger tires.

    You don't need bigger tires to go off road. I had my lift for 3 months before I bought my wheels and tires. As long as you do the lift right the frist time you won't have to worry about redoing anything.

    No you're right but honestly the stock wheel/tire combo not something I would feel safe wheeling in, but yeah I am just going to save for the true lift I want and be done with it.

    Yeah I see your point I will tell you the stock wheels and tires got me deep in the woods mor then once. I hit the eagle lakes trail with them and did it fine. Did wish when I was on the trail that I had bigger tires but I made it whit no issues.
