Default wheel/tire/lift package from rustys

i know alot of people dont think highly of rustys but has anyone gone with the 3inch wheel/tire/lift package for a little over $1000. seems like a good deal to someone who is a "complete" noob jeeps. wont be doing much offroading just looking for a nice looking lift. anyone got some input on that??

you dont have to get a package deal to get stuff at the right price you can get wheels an tires farly cheap locally instead of ording it you just have to look an you will have a better option in tires as well

What's wrong with Rusty's? I've been rockin the 4.5" lift with HD track bar and steering conversion. I run 32" BFG MT kmII's. Killer setup. At least they make their components while the other manufacturers are out sources their stuff. RC lift kits kinda ride like S**t. Sorry folks who have a RC kit. Just didn't like it myself. Rusty's customer service is great too.
I agree with what dude said above. Shop locally and you can find deals. If you pay in cash (especially nowa days) some privately owned shops will cut you deals even more.
Besides, who cares what kit your running and what douche bag name brand you have. If your rig is built right it'll last. Hopefully your enjoying it with a smile on your face. Flippin off the world.
