Default 31" to 35" tires advice and thoughts

hey guys, I currently have 31" Mud Claw tires on 17" wheels and 2" body lift. I'm thinking to swap those tires with 35" Falken wildpeak AT. So does anybody know what wheel size those tires fit in? and would I need a higher lift or 2" good enough?

my jeep is 2010 unlimited sport so what else do i need to change in order to install 35's?





thanks,
Abdulla

15 inch wheel is all that the 35 wild peaks come in. I suggest you check out the Duratracs in 315/70/17 which is the metric equivalent to 35s. A bunch of users on here run them and love them. And yes, your lift is fine but you'll need some wheel spacers

I have 35" Wild Peaks on 17" rims. Check that you have enough backspace, add bump stops and you should be fine with a 2.5" lift. I nearly tore off my rear fender rock crawling before the bump stops.

I've got the JSPEC 2" coil lift about to be installed in about a week. I asked David at Northridge4x4 if 35's will fit under this lift and he assured me they would. I also bought some Teraflex bump stops from him to "hopefully" keep me from tearing off my fenders. Keeping my fingers crossed...
