hi, do you think it will work also to my 2010 Sports JK without any lift...? I`m thinking in the near future to buy a new set of wheels which is 17x8 4.50 BS and the tires are 275/70/17 or 285/70/17...which do you recommend...the 275/70/17 or 285/70/17...without doing any lift...or spacers...Thanks
