Had Jeep lifted. 4" Teraflex longarm, 35" tires, Mickey Thompson Sidebiter wheels.
Still sits a lil low in front, got a LoD rear bumper and tire carrier on order, hope that levels it. took it for a drive up to Yosemite, rides nice.

Just got my new spare tire (the other 4 are coming next week); Open Country AT/2 P265/70R17. Before I had the original 255/75R17 so those are a bit smaller but since its my daily driver and don't offroad... Do those really look smaller or some people just find something to say?
Looks good

Can not see any differerence on Your photos. My spare looks bigger, because it is thicker.
My take. I was affraid that my 265/70/17 would look smaller than my stock 255/70/18, but I was affraid to go with the 285 size because I did not want to lift my wrangler.
With my slighly lower tyre (265/70/17) my Wrangler looks better due to more agressive thread pattern and that my tyre goes slighly past the fenders (wider stance), because I have Black Rock Yuma rims with 4.5 in back spacing.
And the spare wheel looks better because it is thicker.
Before, stock
After
265/70/17 to the left, stock 255 to the right.

Added 10" LED Lightbar to the front of the Jeep.
It's a Rigid copy I got offa ebay for $100. The only difference from the Rigid one I could find was this doesn't have the Rigid name stamped around the edges, otherwise it's identical.
It's very very bright!
