I’ve been waiting a long time for this. They look amazing. Cooper SST Pros. My cousin works at a national tire store and got me the employee discount.

One persons amazing is anothers that’s out of proportion. And unfortunately I’m at the latter end of that spectrum on this...

12.5 wide - 4" slee lift. Pretty sure they are going to rub at full stuff. Debating 6" of lift or maybe just 30mm coil spacers.

It’s an ancient blackhawk 4 ton lift. It probably weights 300lbs. Got it at a garage sale a couple years ago.

Slee lift is best lift.
Actually, most stuff Slee is best stuff.

I’m digging the look and functionality of those tires.
You’ll have less trouble going over rocks and such. MPG’s might take a hit, but I doubt you’re worried about that, lol

Hello 37" buddy. I dread having to go up in wheel size but 37x15s are getting tough to find. Plus I have a set of older chevy 4x4 15x10" slotted mags for the FJ454.

When I had my Wrangler JK I tried using a could spacer lift to get by for a bit. It was a crappy ride. I got better coils and shocks and it was much improved. But I only needed 2.5" of lift to clear 35's with the 2" wheel spacers and tube fenders I put on it. I only needed to change some sway-bar links.
I’d recommend a proper lift kit. At 6" steering geometry might get squirrelly. Death Wobble could become a thing.

Yeah I really didn’t want to get new wheels, I wanted to use the stock alloys which are 16" - problem is only interco makes 37" tires on 16" rims and I didn’t want anything that aggressive/soft.
Thanks a lot of 40's!

I really don’t like the slee lift. The front coils have lost ALL of their paint and are rusting. I think he made the coils way too stiff, my rig is fully loaded and it’s still a STIFF ride. Also he never sent me a double carden shaft when I bought the kit 10 years ago - but I was too young and stupid to know the difference.
