My spacers showed up a day earlier then the lift kit, so I decided to put them on and see what they looked like with my factory 18' tires. They are the 1.5 spidertrax.

after looking at the huge difference in looks I'm considering not putting my lift on and going with some 33's. Does anyone have any pics of 33's on a 2DR with spacers and no lift?

also does anyone have any info on getting a 33X12.50-18 tire? I just did a few searches and it appears no one makes this size tire

toyo makes 33x12.50r18 mt

Dick Cepek, Mickey Thompson, and Interco all make tires in that size as well. I really like my Mickey Thompson Baja M/Ts and they come in that size (actually, it's 325/60R18, which is technically 12.8" wide, but who's counting).

Only problem is I wouldn't put these on a 7.5" wide rim... Min recommended wheel width is 9".

thanks, just found them online. I was thinking about changing if I could save a couple hundred bucks, they are basically the same price. I think once you get into an 18 inch tire it does not make that much difference if I went with a 31 or 37

Have you looked at the BFG T/A KO - 305/65 R 18. According to the tire-size converter I use: 305/65 R 18 = 33.6 X 12 (manufacturer says: 33.7 X 12.2)... you get a little more height and a little less width than the typical 33X12.5.

I'm considering these for my Sahara Unlimited. My tire guy tells me there won't be any problem putting these on the stock 18 X 7.5 wheels. I'll wait for a leveling kit to come out (they'll probably be out before my Jeep is delivered!) and I suspect I'll need spacers, too. I like these because they'll give me a little more sidewall on my 18s than the BFG 285/65 18s.

I have the stock 18's with 35x12.5x18's, no problems. There are allot of vendors for this size as well as 33x12.5x18. I went w/ Cooper STT's and love em. Not quite as wide as the Toyo's so a better fit for the stock wheel. Call a tire shop, there is allot available, Cooper, Toyo, Interco, BFG were the four MT's I narrowed down to. Good luck.
