2023 Black Diamond. Considering 2" lift with 35s. Other option is to do no lift and go with 33s. To those that have done a 2" lift what should I expect to be different about the ride/mpg. Specifically Hwy driving. Anything else I should know? Thanks.
2023 Black Diamond. Trying to decide what to do with the tires. I make maybe 2 or 3 long drives per year all interstate 3200 mile round trip. The rest of my driving is around town stuff. Do spend some time in snow in the winter. Nothing offroad. I do not want to change out the wheels, just...

In all seriousness, let me know if you'd like a good deal on a brand new 4 door OEM soft top. Came with dual top package. I'm in South Louisiana so maybe we could meet up halfway?
Do all the decibel tests you want. I'll give you my experience owning both a soft top and a hard top. The soft top is LOUD. VERY loud on the interstate and in windy conditions. Have to basically yell to speak with passengers in the back seat. For perspective, radio audio set to 20 in the...
Had these on a Big Bend, no lift, installer only had to make very small modification - maybe he cut a bit off of the crash bar? Ride was not as smooth as the stock tires - but worth it. Drove in snow a bit and were solid. No offroad. All on Hwy or city streets.
