Default new lift and tires

Today on my jeep I got five 305/70/17 maxxius big horns, also a skyjacker 2" BB. The tires are on factory wheels and are very tight on the back, the rub on the front at full turn. I plan to get wheel or spacers in a couple weeks. The look of my jk changed so much, only regret wish I could have went higher.

Don't get spacers, those tires are just begging for new wheels. Get some with at least 4" of back spacing and you won't have any rubbing. I have 11.5" wide tires w/ 4.5" of BS and I have no rubbing even without a lift.

Extremely nice. You should be proud. Do like I did... go with the spacers until you can find the wheels you want. Believe me, you can always sell the spacers.

Nice job! You'll like the Bighorns. I had a set of 33's on my TJ and loved them.
