18" Sahara wheels w/aftermarket tires/lift??
I just sold my 2006 wrangler sport and bought a 2007 4door sahara. To my suprise, it has 18 inch wheels and not 17's. To my even bigger suprise, I actually like them.
Will they hold a 35" tire?? What about a 33?? My lift is coming soon and I'm still debating between a 2 inch and 33's and a 3 inch and 35's, like everybody else here haha.
I like the stock rims with the militaryesque look and am hoping I can just keep them.
Thanks for the input!

Also, the money isn't rerally the issue for the lifts. I had a rubicon express 3.5 with 33's, and while it looked great, the ride in my new stock sahara is miles ahead. Its kinda making me not want to lift so much haha. Especially since I won't ever go off road really.

stock rims will work with 35s but you will need at least 1 1/2" spacers to get the proper back spacing to clear 35you might have to trim the body lip that stick out into the rear wheel well with if your only gonna go with a 3" lift we have a 4" lift with 35s on 4 door sahara and only have about 2 1/2 in from the body lip
