the one minor urk i have with my xenons, is with 33's and 3.5" lift, the lift looks taller than what it is. haven't had any unwanted attention from the blues though.

with 2" lift they'd look much more proportioned when rolling on 33's.

Sheeds - Xenons all the way...

I'm running 4" shocks, 2" suspension lift, bump stops extensions with 34x12.5x15" Interco Truxus MT's on 15x8" rims...plus extended braided brake lines.

Just be aware of needing mudflaps. After being defected for no rear mudflaps when i was stock i didn't want to give them a reason to pull me over but the flatties don't allow the stock mudflaps to be used. So i had to get the welder out and make some up. Mine are only held on by thumb screw so i can quickly remove them when offroad and quickly replace them before hitting the blacktop.








cheers

Hot jeep Hemi, that's pretty much what I'm hoping mine will be like in the not too distant future.

Jeeps I understand what you are saying about mudflaps and I will do something similar with mine when the new wheels and flares go on to keep it legal.

But honestly I will probably not put them on until I get pinged. I just don't reckon mud flaps look much chop on a TJ and in two weeks my TJ won't be a daily driver any more so probably will only see the trails and won't matter as much.
As it is I have gotten away without mudflaps here in CQ for over 3 years even though the heep has been pulled over a few times. Granted it is stock height and tyres are only half inch outside the flares at present.

Nothin spesh mate just a 2 inch lift, 1.25in body & mm lift with 33" procomps once the current x-terrains are worn out on some 15 x 8 procomp rims like yours (saw the light..don't want your old rims back eh )

Got most things already or organised just need to save a bit more for a few bits and pieces like upper control arms, SYE and drive shaft then its workin time. Throw in some ratios & lockers after that when finances allow.

Plus get a new daily driver in two weeks (07 Subaru Forester) so won't matter if jeep is off the road for a bit

oh nice choice of car, nah sorry i dont.. i was never a fan of the pattern.
throw them on here and im sure someone will want them. realistically they should be worth a fair bit cause im pretty sure the company doesnt make them anymore..
