Hey Josh, I'm thinking in getting the exact same wheel-tire combo for my JK Sport (got those rims already). I won't be lifting it any time soon, so it will be stock suspension for a while. Have you notice any issue with that setup? I won't be doing any extreme offroading, but I'm concerned about rubbing or stability issues... also... what's a BB?:hide:

No problem man, BB is Budget Boost. It's just plastic pucks on top of the stock springs to give you a 2.5" lift as well as shock extensions and a rear track bar relocation. Here's a link to the one he is running: | TeraFlex Suspensions

In regards to running 255/80/17 (33x10.5x17) on a stock height JK, you'd be fine on-road but your'd probably rub just a bit if your fully flexed out. My suggestion would to pick up that budget boost if you have 4 door or if you have 2 door, just swap out your stock springs for 4 door Rubicon Hardtop springs. It gave me a 1.5" lift on my Jeep and I didn't need to change anything else.

Here are your options:

52126319AC for front. Some people run a lighter duty 52126318AC for the driver side to offset the weight of the gas tank. Most just install both 19's on the front.

For the rear you have two choices. Up until last year, the stiffest rear was part number 68004460AA, but now they came out with 68024461AA which is stiffer.

Most people are paying ~$130 for all 4 from the dealer.

Hope that helps!

-Josh

As he sits on 13/55's....which make the 33's look big. Soon to be 18/59's + coil spacers which will make the 33's look small

Thanks Josh. I ended up getting 235/80/17 Duratracs, they are nearly 32" so probably won't need anything else, but I like the idea of the rubi springs. However, these duratracs are LT rated E and seem to be a bit harsh, so stiffer springs might not be a good Idea.
I'll see how it rides on stock suspension... Haven't mounted them on the JK yet.
Cheers!

can't say I'm overly impressed with the dt's performance in ice... wow, talk about squirrely. Need to mess with the air pressure to see if I can get better performance.

Do you have a lift on there with that wide a tire?

 

[JK Yoda]

SoFLA -

No lift at all. I have had three back surgeries and would have trouble gettin in the Jeep with a lift. That's one of the reasons I went with flat flares.....looks kinda like I have one.

Didn't even notice the flares. Looks great. I have a leveling kit and want to fit the biggest tire I can in there. Might have to pick up the flares too.

getting my rockstars later this week!! how do you like em??

 

[WranglerRyder]

keep the pics coming. I cannot decide between 2.5inch lift and 35's or 2inch lift and 33's - most likely going with duratracs.

love all the pics - are the 35's THAT much bigger than the 33;s?
