@Corgi_Express has a great thread for the "No Lift Tire Guide." I'd like to see another thread going the other way. What lift did you go with? And what tire/wheel combo did you stuff under there? I'd appreciate any photos & feedback. (Sponsored or un-sponsored products are both appreciated).

Loving the 1" lift. Looks great! Also thinking white was the only "classic" color that they nailed. If I did it again, I would seriously consider it over the silver I have.

@DallasBBQ I love that you blacked out the A-pillars and box. The white floating roof is amazing

@mammoth I missed that! @DallasBBQ - can you share how you did it? Get it painted? Wrap it ala PowerfulUk? Thanks.

Dealer wrapped in gloss black vinyl for $320. Probably a little expensive but I wanted to pick the vehicle up complete. Lift, wheels, tires, and blackout.

I also installed a Carlinkit adapter to enable wireless Carplay. It works flawlessly!

I've got the Johnson Rods 1.5" lift with General Grabber 275-60-20 ATX tires on it. Loving it so far and am taking it into the mountains this weekend for some off-roading and camping to see how it does. Pictures are in off-road mode.

​​​​​​Mind if I ask you about this?

Where'd you buy it?

Are you still happy with it?

i can weigh in, I have one. I bought it on Amazon. Most of the time it works great, it works just like the factory wireless CarPlay on my BMW. It’s easy to set up. I do get the occasional minor glitch, every now and then it won’t connect or it takes longer than normal to connect - but this happened on my BMW factory set up too. But it works well the vast majority of the time, it’s just as responsive as wired CarPlay and the audio quality is great, and overall I do recommend it.
