im getting a 2.5 " terra flex coil lift, and im running 17 inch by 9 inch wide rim with 295/70/17 tires,nitto terra grapplers from discount tire,i was recommended to go there,will this set up be ok?? with no rubbing? thanx

 

if your back spaceing is 4.5 or less it will be fine. or you will need spacers. those tires will be about 33". you could fit 35's if you wanted to as well but may rub just a bit on the fenders.

 

i asked the guy at the site if it was ok for backspacing,he said they would bolt rite on,so i guess its ok?

 

Look your rim up on the internet and see what backspacing it has. Like mentioned above must be 4.5 or less.

 

Just got the same size Nitto's with no lift on M/T Sidebiters. Looks and works great!

 

Genzod - I'm thinking about doing the same lift but I'm looking at the terra grapplers in a LT285/75R17 that will get you to 33.84 or right at 34 tall and I planned on mounting them on my Rubicon wheels. They recommend an 8.0 wheel but they will fit on a 7.5 ..

Just a thought some people look for width others want taller..But, whatever you decide - I'm sure it will be an awesome set-up.

 

My Jeep mechanic ( 20 plus years building/working on jeeps) runs 16" x 8" wide cragers for any tire not exceeding 12.50 wide. He is an avid rock crawler and has yet to slip a bead.... I run 315/75/R16 no problem on a crager 8" wide. You'll here all kinds of advice for this so this is just mt opinion as well as Shane's (jeep Master)

 

They should fit just fine on the stock wheels. There are guys on here running even larger and wider on there stockers with no problems.

 

what rims are you runing? i will look up back spacing and see for you. that would be the only problem i see with you combo if it is more than 4.5 bs.

 

i emailed discount tire ,the backspacing is 4.5, so i should be good,its a v-tec raptor
