33s on stock jk

engineman1031 · Sep 6, 2014

I have an 09 jk rubicon. Right now it's all bone stock. I'm lookin to upgrade to 33" general grabbers or at2's with no lift to start since it's the most expensive of the mods I wanna do. But will I have any issues. I'm already running 1.5" rugged ridge spacers so that'll rule out the rubbing. But anything else till I get the $ for like a 2" lift?
BTW it'll be on the stock rims. And any preference for the general tire brand?

You will be fine. You can run 33's with no lift at all.

You might rub your fenders a bit but other than that you will be fine. If you wanted to you could do a leveling kit

Don't forget he's gonna rub a little on the sway bar at full turn too. Solution = wheel spacers or wheels with less back spacing

He already said he has wheel spacers which is why I didn't mention it

I have the General Grabber AT2's on my Commander. Have had no issues with them at all. overall they are a good tire:thumb:

33's will be fine off road. Buddy runs them and sees no rubbing. He does have a leveling kit as mentioned above.

I ran 285/75r16s with no lift for a while and never had an issue. I've now got the 4dr rubicon springs on my 2dr and have plenty of room!

How do you like 33's with no lift and trimmed fenders? Looks good in your photo, but I've seen some rigs that make it look like you've skipped leg day, if you know what I mean.

Just got 285s on mine today. Only a little rubbing at full lock, but I also haven't had it off road any.

I'm also curious as to how wide you can go on those 33"s with stock wheels ?

JKWrang · Oct 22, 2014

I believe most recommend no greater than 12.5 width on stock JK wheels

Are you running wheel spacers? I'm needing tires but I don't want to buy spacers because gonna get new wheels later.

I ran 305/70/16 on my stock steel wheels on and off road. If you leave the sway bar connected the only rubbing you will see is minor rubbing on the sway bar at full lock. I never disconnected the sway bar so idk if doing so it would rub the fender.

No spacers. Planning to go with a 4" lift and 37s come spring, so didn't want to throw more money into this than I had to.
