Recently I purchased some used wheels. XD Monsters 18" for my 2007 JKU with 3.5" lift. The person I bought them from said all the right things, correct bolt pattern and offset needed to fit 35's, however, he did not have anything to document this information. Fast forward, I took the JK in to get new 35x12.5R18 Nitto Trailgrapplers to replace my stock wheels and spacers. When I went to pick it up the shop (Big O) had left the spacers on and said "they weren't confident it wouldn't rub without these." I took a look and felt it would be ok, so I asked them to remove all the spacers. It appears the tires extend a good 2" past the fenders.

What I need. I am looking for anyone with the same setup. 3.5" lift. 35's on XD Monsters with +12 offset to post a picture of your JK looking down the side to show how much the tires extend past the fenders. I would also like to hear if you get any rubbing daily driving or full flex.

I've driven it for a few days now and don't seem to have any rubbing. My biggest concern is probably on the front inside face at full flex/turn or possibly my fenders at full flex. I've read the stickies, but just want some photo confirmation from those that are running this same setup.

I only have a side shot but will post another angle later today.


Thanks in advance.

Well you could always take the wheel off and measure the backspace.
A +12 offset should sit pretty flush with the fenders on an 18x9 wheel if I remember correctly

Cut or remove your lower plastic air dam and you will have no rubbing.

Here's mine on a 2.5 inch coil lift (4.5" BS)



Here's one from when I had stock fenders

This helps. Any chance you can take one directly down the side from the front? I have about 2" of the tire hanging past the fender.
