I ran the 285/75-17 at2's on stock rims with 1.5" spidertrax spacers and 2.5" rk lift and they did great, smooth and quiet. I ultimately switched to at2's in 35/12.5-17's. I always hear that toyos are heavy and too stiff for jeeps but been running them for 3 years and love them.

What was reason for switching to the 35/12.5"?

Want the wider stance look?

Yes. I have found no downside to the slightly bigger tires. It was an easy decision as my buddy wanted to buy my 285's. I wished they made 37's in the at2's

Ordering tomorrow morning from Tread Depot

Only issue i had with that size tire (nitto terra grappler in stead of toyo) was that it rubbed slightly on the rear sway bar but you already have spacers which is what fixed it. My nittos measured to almost exactly 33 inches tall and 11.25ish wide but most people consider them a 34 inch tire.

I have a 10a Rubicon with a 2.5 lift, 1.5 spidertracs and TOYO R/T open countrys 295 70r17 on stock wheels. I love these tires, they are quiet and the tread looks great. I will probably buy the same tire when these are done and these came with the 50k mile tread warranty. Couldn't be happier.Click image for larger version
