Lots of words like tyres/tires exist. It just depends on where you are from/currently located.
Another one is favourite/favorite. Another one is nite/night. Another one is lite/light.
They mean the exact same thing, one is english (UK), the other is english (US).

I’m gonna do 3 on the front and 2 on the rear. The jeep may sit level spec wise, but eye sight it looks like the front is lower.

It’s always tough to know if you go with measurements or what it “looks” like. It’s kinda like trying to level a picture: do you make it square to the floor or to the crooked window frame.
it does look a little higher in the rear.

Id say the front is definitely a few inches low. Rear looks to be standard. Weight of the front bumper can cause it to sit a little lower. The front springs on the 2.5 might be softer than the 4.0.

Wrongholefool that bumper is heavy as crap. If I remember correctly it’s pushing 200lbs. After 200xxx miles I think the suspension is probably wore out which is contributing to the lower look.

For sure, front bumper and a winch can add enough weight to sag brand new front springs. I put new springs on almost every one I've had. You can get .25 inch up to 3 inch spring spacers( or adjustable ones)to fine tune the front after you add springs, depending on which route you take to get the lift and stance you want. Almost everything is available that you could want for these things.
