What's the "L" mean?

From the MOD TEQ FAQs page:

Q: What is the biggest size tire I can fit on my stock Jeep JK Wrangler?
A: The largest tire size that the factory recommends is a 255/75R17 (which comes standard on Rubicon models) or a 32x10.50. However, there are many Jeep JK Wrangler owners who are currently running as big as 285/70R17 or 33x10.50's with little to no rubbing issues. PLEASE NOTE: When discussing tire size, DO NOT take into consideration what the "actual size" of the tire is but rather, just what is listed on the sidewall.

You can fit 35's on a JK with no lift and cut fenders on the street if you want

It depends...How much rub are you willing to tolerate?


I put 35's and they rubbed a little at full flex. So if you are just driving around town and doing lite trails you wll be fine.
