Default They fit!!! Color me surprised

I was struck by the Mod bug shortly after purchasing my '10 Rubicon. Thus I have new parts arriving almost daily.

Anyway, the wheels and tires arrived before my Teraflex 2.5 BB so I got inpatient and decided to play around with mounting this afternoon.

Wouldnt you know it those 35's fit on the stock Rubicon with no lift! Took it around the neighborhood without a rub or scuff.

Dont worry all, the Teraflex is scheduled to arrive Thursday and Im not planning on playin in the dirt until the lift is on...if I dont drive another car in the meantime anyway. I was just amazed how easily the 35x17's fit.

I'll work on getting some pics up shortly..with the lift installed of course!

Just thought i would share my amazement.

I'd love to see those 35"s on there with no lift too!

Edit: More clearance than I thought. Like the color.

That's one bet I wont take...though it would make too much sense for the Jeep engineers I suppose.
