Yeah. With a 37x12.5 I would imagine there would be rubbing while turning. I don’t have this on my rig so I could be wrong tho. I think a 35x12.5 works, from what I’ve read here. But I think a regular sport has a deeper backspace wheel. The Mojave gets a wider track from less backspace wheels, not wider axles.

The Rubicon, Mojave and Sport or Sport S with Max Tow all have wider d44 axles than the other models. The Mojave also has a different offset giving it a slightly wider stance, but all three have the wide d44, which allow for additional clearance running wider tires on stock wheels. No spacers needed on any of these models.

I have BFG 37x12.5 on my stock Rubicon wheels. Now that it's lifted, my steering stabilizer is the limiting factor, steering stops are as far out as they can go without pulling the stabilizer past its travel length. I have plenty of room.

Prior to the lift, I definitely had rub, but only on the lower control arms at full turn, and adjusted the steering stops to compensate: no spacers needed (or wanted)
