Hi, I had the wheels for a few weeks. Debated on tires for about 6 months. Glad I went with the 285/70/17, looks great. no change in ride, and the Duratracs are pretty quiet, with a small humm!!!

Rim protectos/ yes or leave em off ???

Hi, just curious what you-all think about the RR - rim protectors. I put one on the spare check to see.. should I leave them off? and add them after the wheels take a beating

Still cannot get over what tires/wheels do to a Wrangler...

Can this tire/wheel size combo fit without rubbing without a lift or leveling? (No serious off-road besides dirt trails).

Thanks.

Roxbury, sweet truck! The RR Satin Black wheels & 33" DuraTracs look awesome. :thumb:

I want to order this same wheel & tire combo for my black 2 door, I think they'll completely transform the Jeep. I believe this is pretty much the largest tire I can safely install without having to worry about rubbing, since I don't have a lift.

However, I can't find 285/70-17 DuraTracs in anything but Outline White Lettering. How did you get that size in blackwall?

Goodyear*Wrangler DuraTrac

Per Goodyear, they only come in OWL:

Wrangler DuraTrac | Goodyear Tires

LT285/70R17 121Q OWL 7.5-9.0 8.50 11.5 33.0 18 3,195@65
