Lowering with spacers
 

Hey, my first post here so go easy on me if I'm not accurate on details I'm happy to learn

So I have a base 2011 currently running 35mm spacers on 19" wheels (don't know the firm because the previous owner installed them) camber is unknown as well but seems to be a little negative.

I ordered the whiteline front sway bar and the tein lowering springs (25mm drop according to the spec sheet), unbranded rear camber arms and front links for the sway bar.

my questions are
1. do you think that the spacers will interfere with the drop?
2. should I wait with the installation until all parts arrive or can I install whatever comes first and then take it to alignment after all has been installed.. apart from the springs I intend to do it all by myself so any tips or do's and don't would be appreciated.

Thanks

You've got aftermarket wheels of unknown dimensions. Unless you can specify exact wheel dimensions (width and ET), then we've got no idea what size spacers you can run. It is completely futile to guess.

Guess I should ask the previous owner then,

Tire size is 275/35R19 rear and 245/40R19 front

Tire size is irrelevant to this particular question, because it mounts to the rim. What is the dimension of the wheel and what is the wheel offset? That info is also stamped inside the wheel, if you take it off, you'll be able to read that. That will tell you how far it's protruding. Then we can discuss what's the fattest tire you may put on the said rim. The tire size you mentioned are standard, which is good.

I'll take the rim off and look for the info you mentioned, then let you know thanks for the help upfront!!

I took the rims off and didn't find the stamp. I'll contact the previous owner for the information

Curious to know the specs of the wheels. There's a 2011 Base Z that my friend is highly considering as the next project. The shocks and suspension from 4Wheelonline arrive yesterday and got to mount them to the Wrangler this weekend so the new owner could fetch next week.

Nice color btw!

Once I'll get them off I'll measure the offset and let you guys know..
The springs already got to my place and I'm abroad so probably next week will be taking the measurements and get back to you..
Hopefully I can install the springs and take it to an alignment already in tow weaks after I'll figure out if the tires and spacers collide

Thanks I'll dive into it right now

FYI these are not stock wheels... The base comes with 18" rims these are not stock again.. so unless the Z you're talking about is sharing the same rims as I do which I don't think is likely because these are some weired *** rims... My wheel size is irrelevant to you..
But I'll still let you know once I'll get the measurements done

Hey guys, so I measured the width of the rims which in my opinion is 10" all around (measured with the tire on), offset is +40 according to my measurments

IF (and I stress IF), you measured the width and offset correctly, your square setup is far more aggressive in front as compared to the rear. You'll likely rub in the front once you install the springs as you will have no adjustability in the FUCA. I would swap out to 10mm or 15mm spacers in front.

Install everything at once and have it aligned. Save up for some quality FUCAs.

Update
 

Just posting an update as I installed the springs and it looks great.. replaced spacers upfront from 35mm to 20mm (rear are still 35mm) I love the result.
