Wheel and Tire Recommendations?
On the silver jeeps I really like the look of this type of wheel. Maybe not this exactly. But something like it. I run the xd addict. It's a 17" wheel. I purposely went Bfg km2 because they run small yet are an amazing tire. So I went 35x12.5x17 and it's essentially a 33. Here are some pics
Thanks so much to everyone with this - your advice and recommendations have been invaluable. I think I'm going to go with 15" MB72's and duratrac 33"x12.50's.
Now, if i could bother you guys with just a couple more questions Ill be all ready to make my order!!
1.) These wheels will fit these tires, right?
2.) Should i get a lift kit? I know it is possible to clear 33's w/o one, but is there still rubbing? if so, would a teraflex 2.5in lift get the job done?
3.) which finish should i order regarding the wheels? I want them to look like this:

Again, I'd like to thank all of you for helping me build my dream jk. Pictures soon to follow.

A 33x12.5 will rub off-road, especially if you disconnect.
You must have a lift or increased bumpstops or trimmed/flat fenders.
305/65R17 measures a bit under 33" and is about 12" wide.
This rim has 4.5" of backspacing so it only rubs the flare. I am running the teraflex leveling kit.

I'm also getting a 2" leveling lift to ensure clearance.
thanks again for everyone's help!
