Tire Size Question?

Hello, I'm new to this forum and to the Jeep world! I just bought my very first Jk wrangler X with the C package. I was wondering what is the largest size tire I can put on my X without any rubbing and without doing any lifts yet. Also, i'm not looking to go off road yet, mostly main road driving. In the future I would ultimately want 33's or 35's. I love that beefy powerful look. However I have 3.21 ratio, is that possible without switching gears? Thanks to all that help.

Re: tire size question?

Thanks for your answers, much appreciated! one more question for anyone? what's the largest size tire I should run if I do want to go off roading, no rocks, just mud/dirt etc....?

Stick with a 32 if you don't lift it and want no rubbing. That's what comes stock on a Rubicon. The 265/75/16 works perfect!
