New to the forum, my first post actually. I’ll spill it right now, I’m a box Bronco guy but I just picked up a bone stock ’89 Cherokee with 102k in great shape. I wanna do a few mods but, at least for the moment, don’t plan on building this into a wheeler. First order of business is a mild lift and tires/rims. From what I’ve found thru Google a 3” lift with 30’s or 31’s seems decent for a DD but I’m having a hard time with Google images trying to figure what size the tires actually are. Could anyone post a picture (or direct me to a previous thread) showing a truck with a 3” lift and 31’s or a 4.5” lift with 31’s or 33’s? Pros & cons to either? The stance I’m looking for is pretty much what is in the picture below. Thanks.

Here is mine. 2.5" lift with 32's. No swaybars, and long travel shocks. About 2" longer bump stops all the way around.

You know I would want to see every option available before I made my purchase.

This give the op a broader perspective on what he needs.

OP, 3" and 31's.
