I purchased the control arms also their totally necessary as the stock ones will ware out in 2-3 years anyway so might as well get the perminant setup then and there.

Shop took longer than expected since they originally thought air suspension was on the Citadel but it is only air-levelling which does not interfere. In the end it went on with no issues

But your thread keeps me motivated
That is totally possible, there are tire sizes for a 20inch rim that will fit with a 32" diameter. Be advised the stock rims has a +50 offset so it won't have as an aggressive stance.

edited: after i was informed by FSTDANGO3 that the stock offset is actually 50!

Actually Worse the stock rims have a +50 or more offset sucking them in even further

You want something with a +35 to get tires to edge of wheel well or even +30 or less to make them stick out a little

I agree as well, there could be an entire special pkg designed around it. They should also include 2 speed transfer cases on those pkgs as well. Or maybe employ some of the Jeep transfer case options
That would give some the option they want

I think there is an option actually. its called the jeep grand cherokee
Basically a Durango just geared a bit more towards capability and off road from factory.
