Hi everyone, i just bought a 2006 Jeep kj limited. I want to put some off-road / winter tire on it but they don't sell anything good in the 235/65/17. So i will go with a bigger size like a 245/70/17. I wonder if 3" inch lift will be enough to prevent rubbing. I would like to keep the original wheels. Any advise on wich company to go with for the suspension and what kind of set-up. I used to have an old chevy's with springs (Suburban 2500 on 40's x 17.5 ) and don't know a thing about IFS and coils. I'd like to go bigger than that but the truck will be 90% of the time on the pavement. Any advise will be apreciate. Thanks.

I was in the same boat, used the OME Coils and got about 2.5" of lift, and I clear my 245/70/17 Nitto Terra Grapplers (which I really like) with no issues what so ever.

Ok thanks. I will go to my local 4x4 shop (Naional 4wd) next week and see what they suggest. I want full height spring and long tarvel shocks for the back. Up front, it will mostly depend on "how much" but i don't want inner coils spacer.
OME springs and Bilstein shocks are what you want.
