You might not even need a lift—just go with bigger tires. I’m running 225/65/17s, and I’ve got 9.2 inches of clearance, which works fine for me.

I’m running Wildpeak A/T tires and gained about an inch of clearance. I haven’t measured it exactly, but I haven’t had any issues on the trails I drive. It’s really a toss-up between aesthetics and practical use at this point. Thanks for the advice!

What size did you upgrade to? Definitely feels more capable off-road with bigger tires.

I agree, bigger tires would be my recommendation too.
