on my 1st jimny once I put the off road Mud tyres on and my 32mm wheel spacers it transformed the road handling and I used to have a 25 mile round trip to work every day and it was fine.
I now have a new Jimny with a 3" lift and caster corrected bushed and its not much different with the bushes so its up to you I would put the pennies towards some good tyres there the most important bit of kit.

I've had a 2inch spring lift for nearly two years, no it didn't self centre and tended to follow "tram lines". I've recently fitted the castor correction bushes I bought with the kit when the standard ones wore out.

And..........................
Is it driving different/better?

Yes,
I'd say back to normal, self centres and doesn't wander as much.

On the 9th day he swapped it for a Jimny.
