I would like to put 31's on my 94, and i thought shackles would be ok, but i dont hear the best things about them. Would 31's look too dinky on a 3 inch rough country lift. thanks

I have the RC 3" lift with 31x10.50's and 2" shackles. It doesn't look bad, lots of room for flex, but I do think 33's would look better.

Im running 33's with a 3 inch lift. Under normal wheeling it does good, but under heavy flex it rubs in the back. Im looking into a 2 inch body lift. Heres a pic:

If you want to see the jeep after the lift when I was running 30's click on the pic of the BMW and the Jeep

31's look good and fit without a problem, but could go larger. I've got a set of 33's sitting in the garage waiting for a re-gear before I mount them. I've got the 3"rc lift and it works great.

I run 35s on my '91 YJ. The Jeep has a 4" suspension lift and a 2" body lift. Still I had to trim the flares quite a bit.

I am running 33s (33X10.5 BFG ATs right now) & have just ordered the 33X12.5 M/T MTZs with Classic II wheels for my unlimited. Have a 3" BDS suspension lift. Will eventually be changing fender flares to Bushwacker Flat Flares so rubbing (if it occurs with current setup) should be taken care of.

31s will look fine...i run 33s with a 2.5" lift so you can run 33s fine with some trimmming

im also am planing on doing a 1" body lift and running 35s with a lot of trimming

so if you really wanted to you could run 35s

I have a 2 1/2 rough country suspension lift on my LJ and run 33x12.5's with no rub during daily driving. A little rubbing when flexing on the trail. I have a 1.25" body lift in the garage that i haven't installed because i like the way it looks/behaves just as it is!
