Any one running the EVO 2 1/2 “ coil lift with King shocks and 37” tires?

Looking at this set up Stage 3 and wondering about the ride quality and tire clearance. Is 21/2” enough with Cooper 37” x 12.5 STT Pro?

Should be enough to clear 37's just like their 2.5" coil spacer lift being that it uses the same bump stop extensions. You will most likely need to reshape your rear fender liners with a heat gun but that's about it. As far as ride quality goes, I'd have to imagine that it'd be a lot better than the coil spacers and shocks extensions.

In our experience. 2" Coil spacer & shock extensions gave the same ride as stock going over bumps. The rear tire scrubs a bit on the inner plastic liner like mentioned, but still able to go off road.

That's the major contender for me too. Waiting for the Off Road expo in late September with all the manufactures will showcase what they have.

Pulled the trigger

Well I purchased the EVO 2 1/2 coil lift stage 3 with King Shocks for my Rubicon JLU
I could not be happier with the ride and quality. Running Cooper 37” STT Pro with 30psi. It rides better than stock. The King shocks are awesome. The front shock is close to 2 1/2 “ longer and the rear 1/2” longer. Tried the EVO shock extensions on the front. They did not work. As the front wheel droops the shock rides into the frame. These shocks are massive at 2.5” in diameter. Have not had it off road yet, but I am sure it will be great.

Thanks for all your help in the decision making process
