So you have a small lift kit and they still rub?

Are those 33" 's?

They are 295/75/16s they measure just over 33" , most 33's (285/75/16 or 285/70/17) measure out under 33"s. It only rubs flexed out while wheeling..

Out of curiosity when you are flexed out wheeling do you disconnect your front sway bar links? I was just wondering if you were rubbing while connected b/c if so you would likely really rub disconnected.

Just rubs in the rear, fronts dont rub, i have a feeling the fronts would rub the fenders disconnected though.

Judging by the Wrangler ST's on the stock 16" steel rims those are the Sport's factory 225/75R16.

Roughly 29x9R16.

That's got a good explanation of the math in how to convert "metric" sizes to "flotation" sizes.
