Default 4" breaklines on a 3" lift?

Im ordering some extended breaklines for my xj. It has a 3" lift on it and i am eventually going to do long arms on about a 3.5" lift. The breaklines i want have either a 3" or a 4" lift opion. Would the extra inch hurt at all or will it be okay?

I ran the iron rock 8" extended ones when i had 33's on my 2" buget boost. just be sure they're out of the way of the tire so they don't snag and you'll be fine.

considering odds are if you have a lifted vehicle your gonna flex it out at some point or another so why wouldnt you want the extra inch? just means you can flex even more.. if your worried there gonna catch on something mount the to your inner wheel well like the stock ones are up front.
