Those look great. I got the off road pkg which is supposed to give me a 1” lift. Not sure if it’s a body lift or suspension but I’m thinkIng suspension because the off road pkg comes with HD suspension. 275s are puny. My Jeep has 315s (35”) tires and it looks great. I really don’t want to trim anything just yet.

I wanted the off road group but couldn’t opt it at time of order. I would have been happy with the 1” suspension lift that comes with the ORG and some 33’s but since I couldn’t get it I just figured what the heck and go 3 1/2” if I’m going to install a aftermarket lift anyway. I may not have had to trim any if I would have used the factory wheels with the positive offset, oh well! If you haven’t already, you may look through the other threads pertaining to this. I was thinking somewhere someone mentioned putting 33’s and someone else put 275/65/R20’s on a stock ‘19 with no problems. Good luck!

I may have missed this in other topics but what's the benefit from not going with E torque? (besides the $500 upcharge) are ones just worried there is more to break down? I'm not sure why I didn't get it, I just don't like the sound of the start/stop and was to dumb to know it could be shut off.

for about 500 it seems like a no-brainer but I'm sure many have very valid reasons not wanting it.

It was the same as the non etorque when I ordered mine. Mines still in “I” status. Week 6 now.

Thank you. My wheels are 275/55/R20 stock. If I’m going to spend the money and change out new tires I’ll go with 315s.

Higher payload, and one less system to break. Still, the other significant advantages have me leaning towards e-torque.
