Default G1 4" vs 6" lift

Just recieved my 4" Allsports lift from Everything Carts. BUT- now I am having 2nd thoughts and considering ordering a 6" lift. The price is not that different. Does anyone have any advice? Is there a noticable difference in handling? I have a set of Polaris wheels/tires that I think I could use with the 6" lift but I also dont want to put such a big tire to cut down on the power. Mostly used driving around the farm, county roads, etc. Thanks in advance for any advice.

i have about 6" of lift on my g1 and 22x11x10 tires and wheels so with the tires and the lift its about 8" of lift. my dad (who is 55yrs old) thinks its a little bit tall but i dont mind it. i use my every single day and i do have to say that when i blew out my knee it was a little bit to tall feeling hoping down from the seat to the ground. but now that my knee is back up to speed its ok again

I'm doing a 5" jakes lift and the primary clutch wont clear the frame with the sheild on it. Do you guys just run it without the sheild or what did you do ?

I went with the 4" and no issues. I dont think mine has the shield you are talking about.
