Those were 315/70/17 (Very close to 35's.)
I bought that kit before I knew anything about Jeeps(Actually before I even took delivery of my 2012.)
It was a decent kit for the money, and had no regrets at the time.
My only regret looking back on it was not going for the better kit right away(I changed suspensions 3x on my 2012, and would have saved some money doing it right the first time.)

What kit you run now ? I'm still trying to figure out what the best way to go.

I sold the 12, but it ended up with Coilovers all around and a Rock Krawler 3 link long arm kit(Lots of weld on parts.)

I'm currently riding around in a stock 2014, but have some metalcloak springs/arms and fox reservoir shocks that I picked up from a buddy sitting in the garage waiting on other parts to install.

So damn sweet ! If I had more places to go around here I would go just as nuts. We have one big place and then a few other spots around me but nothing major to Crawl etc. that's why I figured the RC kit would suit me enough for daily driving and weekend playing.

Honestly the 3.5 RC gets the job done on the trails just fine, and has a fairly good ride quality.
I just got bit by the bug.... Never could get enough.
