Default Tires, Rims, and Leveling Kit

Sorry if this is a repost, but every time I tried to search for this I would get an error screen popping up.

So I'm new to the jk world, and I've been doing some research on getting new tires, rims and a leveling kit. I'm looking for beefier tires, I love the wider tire look and I've settled on Nitto Trail Grapplers, but not sure how big I can go without a lift (in terms of width of the tire, I know 33s are going to be a tight fit) I think the 295/70R17/10 trail grapplers would be perfect, and just want to get some peoples thoughts / advice or if they have any experience with them. I'm also looking at 17x9 rugged ridge black satin wheels and a teraflex leveling kit. This is my DD and it's about an 80/20 ratio for commuting to work / off roading.

Here are the links:

| TeraFlex Suspensions
Nitto Trail Grappler M/T - Free Delivery Available | TireBuyer.com
All Things Jeep - Black Satin 17x9" Aluminum Wheel by Rugged Ridge for Jeep Wrangler JK (2007-2014)

I don't want to make the mistake of buying something and having it not fit / needing more and more upgrades to make it work.

Thanks guys!

You should ask this in the technical forum and you'll get more help. I can't move your post right now since I'm on my phone but will ask a mod to help you.

Here you go. But I did the Performance Leveling Kit(springs) and I add a 1 1/4 body lift. I put on Nitto Trail Grapplers 295/70/18 on stock rims with 1 1/2 wheel spacers.
