Default i have 33's too

I have 33's too w/ no lift and it does rub at full turn...i will be trimming the air dam soon...i really like the stock ride and don't want to mess w/ it...i don't do any off road wheeling, so flexing isn't really an issue for me...

Wheel spacers should correct the rubbing prob.

That's a pic of my Jeep. Man I wish I could figure out how you guys post these pics, vs. the crappy icons I have to post, that are limited to a very small size, which means I have to compress the pics and lose all detail!

Anyhow, glad you guys like it!

Default 33'S with 2.5in

As mentioned earlier, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I have 33's with 2.5in skyjacker, and I think it looks good. I've gotten a lot of positive feedback. That being said, I think 35's look good, too. Here is a pic!

I couldn't make up my mind either, 33's or 35's. I bought some 34's Mickey Thompson MTR's 315/70/17--(34.4/12.4/17R) for $213.99 each. I have a 2.5 skyjacker lift. I have not installed tires, waiting on wheels.

Just out of ignorance(I'm a jeep noob...my stock JK Unlim has been in the mud once and my wife yelled about that, sux to be her) but is there any way to get a shorter lift than 2.5"? I don't like the wheel spacer idea, want 33's, but don't want to have them rub during daily driving. Any options?
