as far as clearance goes, you should be fine as long as you tucked the rear and cut the front fenders... 35's will fit pretty easily
the lower you are the less bump stop you should need.... just get extended bump stops and glue some hockey pucks in to the correct height. thats what i did

keep it at 4.5" thats a good height. 35's will fit with less lift than that... my brothers zj, the one in that picture, actually has those same 35's on it now with the same lift it has on the picture, just a 4in... just depends on how much you want to cut. i'm thinking about lowering mine when i do my axle swap

I've got about 5" of bumpstop and some pretty good sawzall and sledge hammer work up front to stuff em. The km2's weren't bad to fit, they measured like 33.5" true but these q78's measure a true 35. If you regear and go to 35s, I suggest 4.88s. I have 4.56's and fawkin hate it.
4.5" with 35" KM2's

4.5" with 36" TSL's

4.5" with Q78's. (Basically a 35" TSL)
