Stock Rubicon Rims

I was wondering if there is a older thread that covers what is largest tire recommended to mount on stock Rubicon Rims. I like to own a set of 35x12.5x17 Goodyear Kevlars

As long as you dont go larger than 12.5 wide you should be ok.

Some people run 37x12.5 on stock moab wheel with spidertrax spacers

Several people here have done exactly that with no problems (at least that I've heard of). You'll need at least a 2.5" lift with bump stop extensions and 1.5" wheel spacers though.

Yeah great. I am in process of installing bushwacker Flatties so hopefully it will help also!

as mentioned, you'll be fine with a 12.50 wide tire but, you're going to want to run 1.5" wheel spacers to make them work.
