Related Q. With 12.5" tires on the stock Rubi wheels, has anyone had them peel off the rim (from being too wide) while driving on-road or when wheeling off-road? It's a legit concern for me because our Jeep double-duties between the weekend family wagon and off-road rig.

May sound silly, but that's been my biggest question. I'll be needing to replace my originals by the end o' the year.... and it would be nice to mount 35's on the stock rims (vs 33's) $0.02 appreciated.

What size wheels do you have on those 35's? What sort of lift do you have? What kind of tires?

They are stock Rubicon wheels 16". I plan on wearing them out and then go with bead locks. The lift is a 3" OME from Northridge4x4, it's been great. Tires are MTR Kevlar, very happy with them as well.
