Ok i joined this forum specifically for one reason.....that red jeep on the top of this screen, i want it's tire size. That build is identical to what i've been planning for my JK, a LOC build, while keeping it daily driven. If anyone knows anything about the suspension and tire set up i would love that info

I might be wrong but those sure look like stock rubi tires and rims. 255/75/17 I believe.

They look wider then stock to me. Little more bulge past the edge of the wheel.

are they possibly the last model km2? I know the km2 very well(current model) and they look nothing like that. But yes they do look close to stock, but a little extra height as the stock rubi wheels and tires don't quite bulge that much
I'm trying to do a very simple build that will give me more capabilities and still retain it's road manners....also i don't want to pay the 1500 for regearing as 35s are my tire size of choice right now.

They almost look more like the KM (not to be confused with the KM-DT *rubi tires*). As dirtman eluded to- they look a little wider and the kmdt only comes in one size. The original km comes in a few different sizes and can still be sourced if you're creative. Look at the shoulder of the tire.

Note how the km dt has more of a 'hook' to the center lugs.
