So I'm planning on building up my Jimny and am looking at a 2" lift and 2" body lift,

What kind of rubber can i fit under that?

Should I even lift body and suspension?

Sorry for the nooby questions

Thanks for the help!

When you click on Suzuki talk there is a noob question section, if your at all concerned with being flammed, just ask it in there.

In answer to your question, thats 100mm of lift and im running 31s with less lift then that.

235s and a little bit of guard trimming will fit with 40mm sprung lift.

what 31zook said - I have 3" spring Lift and have 30's with slight scrubbing that requires a slight guard chop.

i run 30"s with 3" springs and 2" BL. i still get minor scrubbing in very crossed up situations but nothing you would think twice about driving right on through.
as above, chop chop is your best solution

I have 4" spring lift with new radius arms. 30" tyres fit fine and it drives better then stock

You will need to consider gearing as well with that tyre size.
