3 inch EVO plush coils

Can you still use the 3inch plush rides with stock fenders and fit 35's. dont want to cut my fenders. I want to do 37's in the next year or so. should I get the 4 inch over the 3 inch? Thanks

Youll need the 4inch to fit 37s

Edit: if you dont want to cut fenders
 
Evo / ome

Has anyone run OME sport shocks with 3'' EVO plush coils? Im contemplating running this combo on my 08 Unlimited. I have OME coils now and ride is too harsh. Im also going to lose the OME rr track bar brkt and replace with EVO axle side brkt.

Yes, this is a very soft combo. In fact, its the smoothest combo I've ever driven on the road. However, it doesn't come without some downsides. IMO this combo had too much body roll in the corners and wasn't as stable as I would like off road.

The OME shocks tend to be valved very soft as they are intended to be paired with a firm coil rate. I personally prefer a firmer shock with the EVO coils (Bilstein, Fox, and Rancho RS9000s shocks dialed to 5-7).
 
Does anyone have any of experience towing with this setup? If so, how do the coils handle the added weight in the rear? Does the jeep squat a lot?

Not towing, but I do know that adding a bunch of weight will cause them to sag a bit. Unfortunately, you can't have your cake and eat it too when it comes to springs. A firm coil handles a fully loaded rigs weight better but is "harsh" when unloaded. A soft riding unloaded coil will be spongy and sag some when loaded.
