35s on stock rubicon rims

[Phljeeper]

Did you have to use wheel spacers? If so what size. The truck looks awesome. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks. I am very happy with it. No spacers. Just put the larger tires on the stock wheels.

Any rubbing at all with the stock rims and 35s

no rubbing at all. Just had it out on trails in WV and full compressed coil without any rub.

I really appreciate this thread. I had all the same questions. Thanks so much!

Here you go. 35” Nitto Ridge Grapplers on stock Rubicon wheels.

Looks great! Do you have any pics of it from the front so I can see how flush they are to the fenders?
I put 35's on mine but also aftermarket ICON wheels, and mine stick out and always sling dirt on my doors right after I've cleaned it up lol. I kept my Rubicon wheels so I've been considering mounting the 35's back onto them and selling my ICON's.

Sure. Here is a pic from the side in my garage. And a pic of my last wheeling trip of a nice dirty Gladiator.

Damn you guys! LOL. I was GOING to wear out the stock Rubi tires and THEN put 35's on it, but this thread (among others) has me thinking about 35's right away and selling the stockers before I put miles on them...I just don't know if I want mudders or All Terrains. I plan to get BFGs either way.

Man, the JT just looks right with those 35s. Well done. And I LOVE that we can get 35's on the Rubi without a lift. I like a lower center of gravity.

Man! That looks perfect!! Now I’m really leaning towards doing this lol

Been obsessing over researching a small lift.... mostly out of habit and the belief that 35s would run on my JTR off road. Now maybe I’ll spend the money on the 35s first. Choices...choices.

Here is another one on stock rims with 35 Nitto Grapplers.

Has anyone put KM3's on stock rims?

Are there only certain tires in the 35" range that a guy can choose from due to the 7.5" width of the OEM rim? It seems many 35" tires require an 8.5" width rim. I'd love to be able to keep the stock rim, but not sure I'd be willing to go with a tire I don't want just to do so.

There are some whose specs show they fit on 7.5 while there are some that do not but still can be mounted. It also depends on the garage that is mounting them some garages will, some will not. There are numerous threads on here that show 35's on stock rims.
