33s on a wider rim or 35s on stock wheels

You need atleast a 1.5" spacer for each wheel. I actually went with the 1.75" spacer for just a little more width. Thr general recommendation is spidertrax brand spacers, they are the best you can get and really don't cost that much more.

Also, in reference to something mentioned earlier there are some 37's that are 12.5" wide like the trail grappler, but others like the mud grappler and toyo mt are 13.5" wide and are not recommended to put on a stock 17

Has anyone ran 34 / 10.50 Super Swamper LTB. on stock wheels and no lift? If so are there any issues with swaying on the highway? I am trying to get the biggest tires possible without buying wheel spacers, I plan to get different wheels later. Don't want waste money on the spacers. ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1375036200.958462.jpg

Any recommendations are welcome

OK I have 1 3/4 coil spacer lift w/ 35- 12.50 on stock wheels. I also cut my fenders a bit. Plus I cut pinch seam n rockers. I have very little rubbing. It only when I'm flexed and the wheels turned.

I havn't done it but a member posted a pic where he had flat fenders no lift and 34's but im pretty sure his were 315mm wide. The stock tires are 255mm which is about 10 inches so it seems like you should be good heigh and width as long as you have flat fenders

Miguel, most of it is up to how much money you can budget. Right now I have 33x12.5 with steel wheels and 4" lift. Although I do like the look of bigger tires. But for my budget and the wheeling I have been able to do its fine. The plan is once I can regear, get lockers and build up my D30. Then I want to get bigger tires. Hopefully I can win the LOTTO soon.

Take your time do some research on what you want. Don't be afraid to ask questions. Take your stock Jeep on a couple of runs. Find out what you want out of the Jeeping experience. Everyone here does it for different reasons.

33, 35, and 37's are 12.5" wide and 37's are sometimes 13.5" depending ok what brand/tire you get

So if you get one of these tires and you're on stock rims (don't get a 13.5" wide on stockers) then yes you will need a wheel spacer at each wheel.
