Req 3xcli now or wait?

It has been 60 days officially since I was approved for my Amex BCE. Should I wait another few days or go ahead and req a 3xcli? If I do request it, and it is too early, and I get denied; will I be able to request again when it has been the correct amount of days? I don't want a FR!! :-(

 

What do yall think?

Wait. I'm still waiting for them to update my SP. I've been eligible for 61 day request since 11/14ish. It's been difficult to wait.
