Wouldn't buy **** from them if it was gold plated.
4.5" is optimum as it keeps most "non-wide" tires off the steering components and under the fender when using stockish rims. Mine are a bit closer to 5" but it's still okay.
Make sure you know someone who knows how to do it.
It's definitely a "if you have to ask, pay someone to do it" skill. Very easy to screw things up and end up with $400 worth of broken parts if installed incorrectly.
DON'T buy ANYTHING from Alfa Heaven. Do a search for them...you'll see why.
No, your axles are basically on borrowed time with anything past 35's and even light offroading. Plenty of folks have blown up 10 bolts with smaller tires and daily driving. Especially the rear Grenade-Lock...
You want at least a 35" tire. Any shorter and you won't notice much difference at all between them and the stock sized 31-32" tires.
I've got narrow 38's on mine with stock GMC rims and 1" of front lift and cutting. Soon to relocate my front axle to help even more.
I drove mine with 36" HMMWV...
Not sure but looking at mine there seems to be little screws at the top and bottom where the rod the vent pivots on goes into that...I think aluminum..."bump" that sticks out from the window frame on the top and bottom.
