Hey guys just ordered a set of 17x9 wheels with a -12mm offset. looking to put 33's to go along with them. Will my jeep require a lift or anything of that sort? thanks.

The recommended size for minimal rubbing is 17 X 8 w/ 4.5" backspacing. I don't think the extra inch will make too much of a difference, but may rub at full turn on road and more off road. I don't know what a -12mm offset is, but hopefully close to a 4.5" backspace.

Before I installed my lift, I had 16 X 8 with 4.5" and didn't rub at all on road. Minimal rubbing off road.
