What's the biggest tire I can install without wheel spacers?

[Runner51761]

Hello everyone!
I have a 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. It has a Teraflex Performance coil spring leveling kit installed on it with a 2” lift in the front and 1” in the back. I would like to know what would be the biggest tire I can put on without installing any wheel spacers and have no rubbing issues. I have stock Rubicon rims 17”. Thanks in advance….

I'm running 255/75R17 on stock suspension with no issues so I would think 285/70R17 shouldn't be an issue. That is slightly less than 33" (32.7"). That is the stock size on JL and JT Rubicons and I think various other trims. I have seen this tire on a stock JK although it looks a bit "stuffed" with no lift and OEM fenders imo.

Others that have actually run this size or a nominal 33" tire can comment with a bit more certainty.

The 255/75-17 tires are the biggest that work on stock JK wheels due to tire width and backspacing. I don't know about JL wheels.

Yes I agree as long as you not doing no off roading which requires some serious articulation.on vaffanculo I made a chalk line on the stock fenders front and rear and with I fine tooth jigsaw I created my own look .I couldn't see spending 400 bucks on new ones when I already had fenders I can design myself
