Question 35 12.5s on Stock Ruby?

Hi Guys...

I am soon to be installing a Clayton 3.5" lift with MT MTZs 315 70 17s on ProComp 97s 17x9 4.25 BS. I have the tires\wheels and need to drive it up to the shop for the install with them on the truck. I heard others have been able to do it without a lift, but I think those were guys with non Rubicons. I see the Rock Sliders that are on the Ruby may provide less clearance than the models without it, esp looking at the rear wheel well.

Has anyone done it on the Ruby assuming aftermarket back spaced wheels and no tight turning or wheeling keeping it strickly street?

Also will the above setup fit on the rear tire carrier without a spacer? I cant recall what Ive mostly read here on the forums. I believe I heard both, some with and some without the spacer for the rear tire carrier.

THANKS in advance....

If you're just gonna take your Jeep to a shop, you should be just fine. Granted, you will experience some rubbing when turning and maybe even going over bumps but you'll get there okay.
