To lift or not to lift

I am looking for some advice. I don't get the chance to go off road very often. But really enjoyed the times I have. The FJC looks much better lifted without a doubt. Other things to consider is that I still have the stock grandtreks on it, and those would have to go!

on fjcruiserforums.com there is a group buy going for the OME 3" lift. The price is way lower than normal. And while I may not need it, I think I may kick myself in the butt if I don't get in on it. it ends 3/31

any feedback would be helpful!

Not to lift...Is my opinion

If you plan on doing alot of road driving and not alot of wheeling I wouldn't recommend a lift. It can mess up alot of your handling and such on a newer ride making it uncomfortable for long trips and wearing things out prematurely. Besides, you can have alot of fun on nothing more than a 31' tire and a stock ride.
