Thanks for the discussion tiltmode43 and DUI Elite.

I just purchased a 2014 X1 xDrive 28i to replace my 2007 Wrangler Rubicon. It's obviously not an exact replacement but I needed a 'regular' car to take us on long drives.

I had the X1 in mind since a while but this thread convinced me it might work better than I expected for my occasional off-roading on photography outings.

DUI: Have you experienced any rubbing with the 235/50 before installing the mud guards and lift kit? In your experience was it the tallest tire possible before any other mods or do you think there was still some margin.
Also did you experience any impact on highway driving?
Have you installed the lift kit since? What is your experience? How much did it cost in labor to have the kit installed?

tiltmode: What has been your experience on highway driving since the lift kit install?

Again thanks to both for any feedback.
