What size tires should I put on my '99 Cherokee?
Hey fellas, I recently bought my first car in May and went with the 1999 Jeep Cherokee Sport 4x4. Its a XJ. I recently purchased 29" tires for it and it is at stock height. Now i'm in the market for a lift. I'm trying to stay under $400 for a lift kit. I was thinking of a 2.5" lift but with 29" tires I'm not sure how it would look. I've been looking all over the internet but its like no one has a 2.5 inch lift with 29" inch tires. And im starting to think theres a reason for that. If anyone has suggestions PLEASE let me know. Should I get a 2" lift? will that even make it look more aggressive? If anyone has pictures or suggestions please help me. Thank you fellas.

2 and 30
EDIT - These are 245/75R/16's ... so actually 30.5"

2" and 30 tires is a sweet combo. For a variety of reasons. Looks great on your 2door PCO6.
I'm at about 1.75 and 30.
