Default 2013 Rubicon

I am looking to put 35's on my new 2013 Rubicon. I'd like to just get new rims because I hate the stock ones. AEV non-beadlock Pintlers are what I want. Probably going to put 35/12.50r17 KM2s on it. I was wondering if I could go straight to this setup without doing a lift. I am going to do a 3.5" AEV RS lift kit, but need to save up. I figure if I can get the new rims and tire now, I can sell them while they have very few miles, only 500 right now, then do the lift when I can afford it. Thanks in advance for any info.

most common question on the forum... lol

35s you can fit. But you will rub, and you need wheel spacers or make sure the wheels you get have enough backspacing. But I wouldnt recommend doing any offroading without the lift or at least trimming your fenders.
