The thread title was a perfect opportunity to make a joke in reference to an obscure 90s song about a certain detachable body part.

There’s a lot of variables to that question. In my case, 35s did not clear a 2” lift. Actual tire size, backspacing, wheel width, etc play into that equation. If you’re offset is very mild, the tires will tuck inside the flare.

In my case, they were grabbing the flare pretty good with 4.75” BS on a 9” wheel.

I read your build log the other day and Love your Jeep.

Sorry I'm a complete noob at this, but how I get this solved? Level kit?

If you’re never going to disconnect your front swaybar, then you have nothing to worry about.

If you plan on flexing it, I’d just shoot for wheels with 5.25” or greater backspacing. That BS on a 8-8.5” wheel will keep the tire out of the flare.
