so i have a 2000 cherokee sport with a 3" lift with 31 pro comp all terrains and i am thinking about doing the rought country 6.5" Suspension lift and i want to no if anyone has it already and if it is a good lift to buy. and i am also getting 33x12.50x15 super swampers tsl bias. what do you guys think of them? thanks for all the help

its a cheap lift, you get what you pay for.

tsl's were good tires about 20 years ago. i would take any generic mud terrain over them

33's arent alot of tire for having that much lift.

the RC lift is great for that price im going to be geting it this year when tax money shows up...also with a set of 33's and 4.56 gears. dont think twice....eveyone eho has it loves it fit and quality........

quality isnt cheap and cheap isnt quality

I have their 4.5" leafs and they're alright. RCs trying to get their products together but that takes time. Their new track bar is awesome at $120 for the beefy bar and bracket.

I'm at 6.5" and 35s. 33s look funny on that much lift IMO...

Do you drive it onroad much? If so bias TSLs won't last long at all. And I'm with KTM on they're outdated. You can get a better tire cheaper and radial.

i have run a many tire

tsl's are good at not gripping rocks and wearing out in 7k miles

at that height you should also look into longarms as well. shortarms run some pretty steep angles at that height and it will ride terribly and limit the capability offroad.

have you looked into sye's yet?

I haven't had much experience with RC other than there shocks,pretty decent I thought.Bias ply tires on the other hand are way out dated and really suck.They are hard to balance and wear really fast.If they sit they get flat spots.Just go with some good raials.

They are a good tire off road, but if you run them on the street, they will disappear before your eyes. 15,000 mi max, probably more like ten. They will thump for awhile in the morning.

You would be better off using these as a second set for wheeling purposes only. At 65 mph the noise will run you out of the rig.

Oh ya I forgot about the noise.Just play your stereo really really loud!

I would reccomend a lower arm drop bracket....

6.5 rustys lift on 33 12.50 nothing goofy looking about this rig........IMO looks awesome...and would be the best all around tire for the street

i kinda think that looks goofy, i fit 33's on my 4.5, if i went 6.5 i would go with at least 35's, and my experiences with RC are good and they have good quality stuff

broncofire75

Really??

Look at how that front tire and how close it is to the fender(that's short arms for ya) and how much clearance there is in the rear. 6.5" is what I run. I ran my 33s on the same setup I'm at now. It looked horrible and performed worse. Course my fenders are cut and I have no sways...

You can clear 35s with very minimal trimming at 6.5". Get a good 4.5" kit and save the extra money for a SYE, DS, and some armor...you'll be glad you did promise.

And I just reread where you said you have pro comp ATs. That probably means you do drive on the street quite a bit. Don't get bias ply anything. I've got a buddy who tried to. All 4 tires got him for a few mi the before the tread started seperating and were about bald.

i dont like it

you would be more capable on a lower lift

and nice parking jerk
