Default Jeep with 30s and a 5 1/2" lift???

What do you guys think? I'm going to do spacers and shackles onto of the 3.5" lift. Will it look funny with the smaller tires?

Yes, it will look hillarious. 30s are already too small for 3.5 imo.

My Jeep has a 4-4.5" lift and I just put on 215/70/15's I had from my old car to test out the fuel mileage difference than with my 34x12.5's lol. Looks pretty funny, but made a big difference.
