Default 33" Tires

I'm looking to put 33x13.5x17 SS M16 Interco tires on my 07' Wrangler. I'm running225/75 R17 tires with stock rims. Will these 33" fit with stock suspension? If anybody has any info on this I would greatly appreciate it!

Those tires are pretty wide.. spacers for sure. and you may still have to adjust the steering stop as well.

You will still have rubbing at full flex as well. So a BB or a leveling kit with extended bump stops will make it so you dont tear up a fender..

WHEELS & TIRES

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.


Q: What is the biggest size tire that I can I fit with a 2.5" Budget Boost?
A: 33" without any problems and 35" tires with only minor rubbing at a full flex. Depending on how wide your tires are, you may experience some rubbing at a full turn especially if you did not install an adjustable front track bar and/or are still running factory wheels which have 6.25" of back spacing.

Ive ran a 295/70/17 on 4.5bs wheels on stock suspension and had no issues. Alot of rubbing you will get will be on the airdam. You wont however be able to run those on stock wheels without spacers. You are also putting a 13 inch wide tire on a 7.5 inch wide wheel, so you might have some issues there too. Why dont you just run a 33x12.50 instead of a 13?
