Hey guys. I found a really cool set of rims and tire that I want to get.

The question is. Will a 20 inch rim and 35s on them. Fit on a stock wrangler unlimited?

Thanks!

It depends on the backspacing. If there is enough backspacing yes it will be fit but it will rub the fenders if you articulate very much. I test fit my 35's and was playing around in my yard and got off kilter just a little bit and the tire popped off a couple of the fender clips.

Default 20" Rims with 35" Tires

Of course it will fit. You just need to check the backspacing on the rim. I had 20" rims with 33" tires and they were fine. I cut the fenders and had plenty of room, so I bet you 35" tires will fit fine. Good luck

Yeah like tslewisz said the diagram or page he refered you to it does give you a very close answer.

Thanks for the help. The only reason I am worried of lifting is because I don't want to void the warranty. I would like to lift it.

I think I'm gonna go check them out. Maybe put one on and see how it fits.

What do you mean cut the fenders? Where? Any pics?

Thanks guys

If you look on my pictures you'll see how I cut the fenders. If you search here on the forum for fender trim or something related to fenders you'll see how a bunch of us have done it and posted pictures. I also have 20" rims on those pictures. I hope this help. Good luck
