Real quick, can I fit LT285/70R17/D on the stock Sahara wheels with a TF 2.5" BB?

YOu can fit that easily. With a set of 1.5" wheel spacers you can actually fit a 35" tire with that BB.

Thanks man. So with the 33's i shouldnt have to worry about spacing at all? I think the back spacing for those tires are 4.5 which is good i think
