What size tire did you go with on the k02’s? I’m installing my Eibach springs this weekend after driving around with them for months in the trunk. Any tips/tricks for the install, and/or fitting tires after? Thanks
I have 245/65/17 and I’ll be honest I paid an off-road shop to do the install cause I have zero experience and didn’t want to risk royally screwing up on a vital part of the vehicle. I wish I had more advice!

Awesome, appreciate the help! I’ve installed lifts in the past on jeeps I’ve owned but I’m a little nervous with the bronco. Trying to get my mechanic friend to do it with me. Glad to hear I can fit a 245/65/17 with the spring lift. I’m shocked there’s not a YouTube video of the install anywhere. Almost every other lift brand has something online. Thinking of adding wheel spacers to get a wider stance, we’ll see how it turns out.

Awesome! I mean for what it’s worth I would assume a spring lift is less components removed which means less chance of screwing up. Haha. I just didn’t have a tool to compress the oem springs or even know how to do all of that but someone that knows a thing or too it’s probably a pretty quick install. I watched hours of install videos of spacer lifts from hrg and FRL. as soon as I saw a company like eibach put out springs I jumped on it. Stoked to see your results!

The HRG 2.5 inch lift is a more involved installation and will require some minor fabrication skills. Here is HRG's installation video.

Looking at 1.5 vs 1.75 myself. 2.5" is more than I would need.
