Tires and Wheels??

What size are the largest Tires and Wheels I can put on a stock 2012 Wrangler Sport. I would like it nice and tight, but still drivable.

You can fit 35s with wheel spacers on stock fenders. But I wouldn't recommend it. If I were you I would go 33s and flats, then get Quick Disconnects.

33s with flat flares would be perfect. Should prevent rubbing like I have when disconnected.

If it is a street queen you will be fine with a skinny 33. Watch the width or you could rub with stock wheels on the sway bar links.

I'd suggest a 33x12.50 tire on a 9 inch wide wheel with 4.5 inches of backspacing.

I ran 17x8 wheels with 4.5 backspacing with 285/70R17 (33x11.50R17) tires with no lift and it worked really well.
