Looking for some insight for wheel and tire upgrade. Just purchased a 2012 Wrangler 2 Dr Sport. It's bone stock with the exception of a smitty built roof rack. The OEM wheel/tire combo looks a little "old man-ish." I don't do much off road, so not wanting anything extreme and would prefer to just beef it up a bit without needing a lift or regear. Trying to fill out the wheel wells just a little and get the tires out of the fenders a tad. Kind of thinking more of a solid wheel like like the old school steelies, but not wanting to spend my kids' inheritance.

Do you know what gears you have? Also you have to recalibrate your speedometer when doing a tire size change.
Ah. Yes--unfortunately just the 3:21. Not looking for a major change--the spedo is a fairly easy calibration. Mostly looking to get a beefier look. Thanks
I'm fairly certain you can go to a 35" without a lift, but I'm not sure how it'll run with the 3.21 gears, may be a little sluggish off the line. But a Pedal Commander could help that without having to re-gear your JK. You could add some good ol' fashioned Pro-Comp style wheels for under $100 each
Ok. Thanks. I was thinking the most I’d do is 33, but wasn’t sure if even that would go with stock suspension/gears. Thanks
