The ratio of lift vs width has to do with keeping the stability, but lifting just a few inches isn't going to result in instant in-stability issues...I'm looking for some positive offset wheel spacers. j/k
But, I have read somewhere, (probably some off-road forum so like any other forum, it could be true or b.s) ... that for every inch or lift you should add an inch of travel or an inch wider track. Probably some firmer coil springs is equally important.
The mid-travel and long-travel setups sort of supports this concept with more travel and longer front axles.
But then again you haven't lifted yet so the offset/backspacing is probably almost ideal.
Money would be better spent on new rear shocks. That was my first upgrade and the affect on handling was very surprising since they were rear shocks. Got them from PRGproducts.com
I like mine also(factory 17" OR wheels) and I think it would look a little more "agressive" if it was a little more wider...BUT I'm a performance/logic type of guy, so doing the wrong thing just for looks isn't in my genes...but i like my wheels.......you don't think that a mini-lift plus spacing the tires out some wouldn't look good?
