Separate rims for snow tires?
Frank, if you want to consider getting an extra set of wheels, I would recommending getting 18" so you have more tire selection. For the LR4 I like the 265-65-18 You can see them here http://johnsonrods.com/johnson_rods_3_006.htm Here are a few pics of 18" wheels- Johnson Rods

Lifted LR3 ride/handling questions
Another episode of the "Mean Girls" forum clique where a few lonely guys with nothing to do but spend their days and nights trying to tell people what to do in order to validate themselves as important because no one else will listen to them in real life. You lack credibility when you can't be...- Johnson Rods

Lifted LR3 ride/handling questions
You guys live in your own small forum world and don't have a national or global perspective of what going on. You think because you like to ride around in stock mode that everyone else should do the same. Sorry that's not reality. The demand for Johnson Rod lifts has grown year over year and...- Johnson Rods

JW Really, I don't mind the guys that like the tool. Just remember what they say... "Overuse use of your tool can lead to blindness" We don't want that to happen.- Johnson Rods

Lifted LR3 ride/handling questions
Well, it's been settled in your mind because you love your ideas. The IID tool is like ****** for old men who want lift when they need it but don't use it very often. Not everyone likes to drive around in grandpa stock mode and many more than you prefer to have it lifted full time with the 2.5...- Johnson Rods

Lifted LR3 ride/handling questions
jwest I find it interesting that you cant seem to agree with anyone unless they subscribe to your position. Calling people stupid and posers for wanting to lift their vehicles really shows how out of touch you are with the off road community and how well these vehicles work lifted. Some...- Johnson Rods

Lifted LR3 ride/handling questions
Roverman I keep getting that question, so I think its time to add that lift option which can work well for those wanting a smaller lift and also play well with the IID tool. Some feedback on 1 inch vs 1.5 would be helpful. Will 1 inch give enough room for those 31.5 tires?- Johnson Rods

Lifted LR3 ride/handling questions
In the end it really comes down to what you want to do with the vehicle. For most Johnson Rod users they want the 2.5 inch lift full time. Typically, they want to get away from the "soccer mom" look of the stock LR3 and want to have something that looks a little more aggressive with the lift...- Johnson Rods

Lifted LR3 ride/handling questions
jwest The fact that lifting your vehicle raises the center of gravity is obvious to everyone. You frequently see trucks and jeeps raised 4", 6" and even 8" inches. Lifting your LR3 2.5 inches is certainly reasonable compared to what is out there. To suggest its reckless or that the handling...- Johnson Rods

LR4 largest Tire size with lift on 18" Compomotives
In my opinion going over 32 inches only invites more problems. I always recommend not exceeding 32 inches. The Johnson Rod lift has been the most reliable lift for the last six years. When Land Rover dealers lift their vehicles for sale they don't use an IID tool. They use the Johnson Rod...- Johnson Rods

Lifted LR3 ride/handling questions
Wyrover: I get this question all the time. I can tell you that many users have commented on how much they like the ride and performance with the 2.5" lift. Some even prefer it over the stock mode.

LR4 largest Tire size with lift on 18" Compomotives
The 265-65-18 (31.5") is right at the point where you should consider having the lift. That size has been a popular choice and generally its done with the lift because it looks and functions better with the additional space. Here is an example on a full size Range Rover with a Johnson Rod...- Johnson Rods
