JB74 3 inch lift with 215/75r15 tires - looking for pics

They said it has a 3inch lift from Italy so i think its the HM4x4 lift kit installed.

I think it will look goofy. 215s look best on a standard car. As a rule your tyre size should dictate your lift. There is little advantage to lifting just for the sake of it, and if you are adding weight with accessories the extra height is a disadvantage. Also lifts don't necessarily lead to better articulation.

It ultimately came down to a +40mm lift. Front springs from OME, and rear springs something locally produced. The front OME springs were same height as OEM but with thicker coils. Rear springs were seemingly same thickness but longer than OEM. Way less wobble/bounciness now and it seems to sit straighter, ie, no downward slant which I think it had with the OEM springs. 

Looks great in my humble opinion. 

Pic to illustrate difference. I tried to get the before/after photos aligned as best as I could. But the difference is evident when looking at the space between the wheels and body.

  Ok it’s a Sami… but the shape is the same. They are 215/70’s with an OME 40mm lift. I reckon it’s up about 2” on the front and 2.5” on the back. 

When the BFG’s are done I may go to maybe a 29 but I don’t want the wheel weight and lack of manners. I do want the breakover angle which is invariably where I get the current Jim stuck. 


With the little lift and tyres and different chassis arrangement it looks like I’ll have gained about 90mm from the stock Jim so that should make a noticeable difference. 

The 1st picture is 30x9.5r15 (the picture with box on the roof) and the second one 215/85r16 currently I’m running 3inch lift, but I hope soon I’ll get 5 inch 

Oh that looks nice. Perhaps some pictures of flex?
