hey everyone i just baught a 95 cherokee 2 door sport and i wanna put the biggest tires i can with the least amount of lift but i dont want to run into rubbiing. i know i can cut the fenders to get extra clearence im thinken maybe 2.5 inch lift with 32 inch tires would that work?

trust ktmracer on this issue he from what all ive learned from him in the past two years ive been on here he is def the resident low cog expert, but im gonna thow in there there you could possibly clear 35's, im clearing 31s stock height and trimmed could prolly go 33 if i had the tires

dudeimdano

wow my buddy had the re 3.5 inch lift with 33s and he rubbed wen fully flexed with trimmed fenders

It is all a matter of how much uptravel you want. Low lifts equal lots of bumpstopping. Buy quality parts, and focus on down travel, but make sure to use limit starps too

x2 hes definitely the low COG guru
not enough bumpstopping

i looked at bumpstops on 4wd.com i dont know what size or what im lookin at what do i need for a 2.5 inch lift and 33's?

It will depend on whether you run 33x10.50’s or 33x12.50’s and then again on what backspacing your wheels will have.
I’m running 33x10.50’s on stock steel wheels with cut fenders and 3” of bump stop up front and factory bump stops in the rear.
I like the 10.50's for a host of reasons and they happen to tuck up into the wheel wells nice allowing plenty of up travel (aka, more flex).

i would like to run 33 12.50

it depends on if your going for looks or function. realisticly I'd say the biggest tire you can run on a XJ or ZJ without rubbing like crazy or cutting the body is a 31x10.15 it depends on what your into. in my opinion a 4" lift with disco's and 31's will go almost any where.

dudeimdano

no im goin for low cog all function huge lifts are not always better....huge tires little lift.
