Default tire rack 08 unlimited
Getting my in tires 33×12.5×18
Wasn't sure if that's to big for the stock tire rack on my 08 unlimited. If so what are some good brands at a decent price. So much to do so little money.

And I was thinking a spacer but didn't know if it was still not good enough.

Should fit fine... May be a tight fit. I fit 34's on my stock carrier.

I spacer is only a temp solution. But with a 33 you should be fine if you ever went to 35 you would need some kind of a carrier

Ya i was more concerned about clearing the bumper more than anything, but you guys have the same so I'm pretty confident it should be good.
