This is my 2000 Classic. Currently has a 3" Rough Country lift with 265/75/16's. Only thing I have done since I bought it was add the Lightforce's and a new stereo.

This will be a long drawn out build since I have other projects in line ahead of it.

Future plans include:
-F+R bumpers
-Bed liner the interior, rockers, etc.
-LED Light bar for the roof (already have it just not installed)
-5.5" Long arm
-33's
-Lockers
-Custom center console
-HP front axle
And probably much more that I'm missing.

Should go to 35s with 4.88 gearing if you're going up to 5.5"s. Looks like a solid start.

This is going to be a winter daily/toy so I don't want to go to extreme. I also plan on just moving the stock flares up a little and not cut the crap out of the fenders, so I think 33's will do the trick.

Then go 4.5" and 33s. 33s will look small above 5"s IMO.

Thanks guys.
Unidentifiedbomb:
I had an 01 sport several years ago with a 6.5 inch and 33's. I admit it was to tall with just 33's. The following jeep is one I found that I believe has a 5.5in long arm and 33's, and I love how it sits.

That does look nice. The way I figure is that for just the cost of trimming and running higher flares you can go up a tire size and gain more clearance with the same amount of suspension lift. You'll need to trim if you want to stuff the 33s in the wheel-wells anyway right?

I understand exactly what you're saying. I just really like the stock flare look. It will need a slight trim but I plan on trimming only what's needed and moving the stock flares up.
