Default Found the rims I want!...Now what?

http://www.mickeythompsontires.com/w...item=SideBiter

I found these and they are what I have always wanted for my stock 99 black xj classic. I have stock rims and tires right now of course and I know I want these to clean my baby up.

As you can tell I'm pretty new to the forum and customization. I found the rims, I know I will need tires and I have been dreaming of 4" more inches to do it all. So the obvious question is,

Now what?

I don't know what sizes I should go for, what lift style I should choose, what terrain or tire size, and another thing would be some price estimation.
Could use some help from some experienced wheel men, and any help is much appreciated

You can do 30x9.5 tires on them if your all stock. I can get you a good deal too. Just PM or call me. - JOHN

How much more do you think I would need to invest for 4"inch lift? And which of those rim sizes would do the 30x9.5

size 15s for the 30x9.5s and go ahead and get the 8 wide, but they will more than likely rub with 30s, lower back spacing (how far they will stick out (for referrence)). For the 4 inch lift depends on company but any where from 450-800. And some more than that. If you do go with that lift you would wan 31's or 32's. BTW they look good

No lie, I want them to stick as far out from the body without giving me trouble.
I love the look of an xj cradled inside of four giant tires.
