35’s clear fine with no lift but you will need to remove air dams

Wonder if you’d have to remove them for 34’s

Looks great, and it's amazing how much better the stock Sport rims look when wrapped in a bigger tire. This solved my debate about saving an absurd amount of extra money for rims too, or just putting the 35's on stock rims.

Completely remove them? Or can I just trim off the connector piece between fender and bumper? I can't imagine the part that's left (which covers the foglights) would cause any issues

Thanks! Ya the 7.5” wide stock sport wheel pulls the sidewalk in so much less likely to throw a bead when airing down and keeps the 12.5” wide mud terrain tire under the fenders to avoid throwing mud and rocks all over the side. Also keeps it street legal with out terrible looking mud flaps!

Ya I pulled um off completely. Not too worried about the fog lights but I see your point. Been stuck many times and reverse and throttle is your friend!

I put on 285/75 17 (basically 34s) wildpeaks and didn’t need to remove them. No rubbing at all!

Sport s max tow

I have a Sport S and purchased the Overland Rims off Craigslist. I then put on NITTO 285/75/R18.

There are ZERO issues except you do need to remove the spacer piece that comes on the sport. I do not any sort of lift, etc.

I just called Tire Rack and the biggest they say we can go without rubbing is LT275/65R17. I am looking to get the rubicon wheels and slightly bigger tires.. the only thing I don't like about the Sport S is the wheels/tires.

My local Discount Tire Shop took bets. The 285/75/R18 fit (with the spacer between the bumper and fender removed).
