Due to the perplexing nature of Jeep customizations, most customers have several questions. The following information explains some of our most frequently asked questions about our Jeep customization process. If you don’t see an answer to your question, feel free to reach out to one of our Jeep customization experts for a solution.
How much lift does it take to fit the tires I want?
The general rule of thumb for most Jeep Wranglers with stock flares from 2007 through today is as follows:
- 0-1” lift will accommodate 33” tires
- 1.5” – 2.5” will accommodate 34” tires
- 3.5” lift will accommodate 35” tires
- 4.5” lift will accommodate 37” tires
- 5.5” lift will accommodate 38” tires
Does Palmer Custom Jeeps Recommend 20” wheels with packages?
With 20” wheels, you will have a wider array of choices for wheels with the optimal width of 10”. At the same time, a 10” wide wheel helps your Jeep look more aggressive and provides a more muscular stance. It also provides a track width increase over stock, which leads to more stability.
Why do all of your packages with 35” or larger tires come with a swing away bumper or tire carrier?
We have found through exhaustive research that factory tailgates are able to hold up to a 33” tire in normal conditions without any problems. If your tires are 35” or larger, we suggest you upgrade to a tire carrier at the 33” – 34” range so it can support the weight of the tire without damaging your Jeep.
What legal lighting upgrades can I install for better visibility at night?
It’s important to understand some off-road lighting is illegal to use on public roads. Palmer Custom Jeeps by Southern Off-Road Specialists offer several lighting options that are approved by the Georgia Department of Transportation.
We also install:
- JW speaker upgraded
- LED headlights
- Fog lights
- Rigid Industries LED headlights
- DOT Duallys
All our installations are a combination of options designed to give you a five-fold increase in light usability on public roadshows
