I drove my JK on 35" Duratracs and a stock suspension for about 2 weeks before I was able to install my lift kit. Be careful of large bumps and dips in the road. I had a few close calls, but nothing producing a flat. It's OK for around town / flat highway driving. Would not recommend for long term.

You guys running stock suspension with 35s and flats aren't using at the least 1" bumps stop extensions? I would think 1" should be the minimum for 35s. When I had 35s and flats I know I needed at least 1" in the rear to keep the tire from touching the fender

I'm running Mickey Thompson Deegan 38's in 315/70r17 which measure 33.5 with 30psi, I'm not getting into the fenders at all while on the trail

Looks good. I'm working on a similar build on my JKUR with a roof top ten also. How do you like the Tepuli tent?
