Setup question
Over the holidays I picked up a TF leveling kit and a couple sets of spidertrax 1.5 wheel spacers for my 2017 JKU Willy’s edition. Next step is to pick a set of tires. I finally got to see the Nitto Ridge Grappler in person and I’m sold. I will be keeping the stock wheels and would like the 305/70/17. Does any one see an issue with that setup concerning the fenders or rubbing on any of the bars at full turn? Will I need to upgrade my tire carrier also? Thanks in advanced.

You'll rub if you're going off-road and articulating with full lock to lock steering, but you shouldn't have issues as a daily driver.
On the tire carrier- that's your call. Some people seem to think the stock carrier is fine with a 35" but I like to upgrade as soon as you go with a heavier than stock tire.
