People Work?
So am I looking at a 2” AEV with 35s or 33s? If the latter I think it looks great. Im more interested in the ride and if you tow, how it handles it.

also, those look like the Oem Mojave wheels. Don’t they have more offset than the Oem rubi wheels?
2" with 35's
If by more offset you mean less positive offset, then yes. That would actually be slightly farther away from the fenders.

Rubicon +44
Mojave +37

FWIW - both are with stock rims, stock 33's

AEV 3" dual sport HC springs - more like 3.5" though

It might look better with 35's, but the wheel well spacing doesn't bother me. Function is more important than form. 35's will require a re gear (for me) to 5.88's, so that's not happening for a while.

lol yeah no. Been a long couple of days so the grey matter is making mistakes. I do need 4.88's with 35's though. Lots of steep country here, and heavy weight, plus head winds. I barely ever see 8th's on stock 33's and usually am cruising at 80 in 6th for the most part.
