I have the bfg's on my unlimited. It is completely stock, no lift nor spacers. I don't have any rubbing at all. They are good tires but don't really look much different than stock.

i just got these exact tires 3 weeks ago, i have them on the stock rims with a teraflex leveling kit and 1-1/4" spidertrax wheel spacers. i got the E load range. they are a little stiff ,but like the extra security of the beefier tire. i drive 120 miles a day round trip on the highway to go to work and back home. so far i love them, got an AWSOME deal on them from discount tire. they have a nice ride to them with just a little hum at 70 mph. ill try and get some pics later.
