Would this thread apply to Sport S with the regular tow and a manual transmission? Not sure how different the maw tow is verse the regular tow
Hey B-RAD,

Been following along this thread to get the dope and noticed nobody answered your question on here. I am curious myself to the same question, does this apply to a sport with manual transmission, did you every find out?

I ended up going with Rubicon take offs.
they are much cheaper than new rims and new tires and I loved the look and the color match.

Nice pic - validates my decision. I bought the Rubicon wheels for my granite crystal Sport S Tow. Now just trying decide on tires and looking on this site for deals.

The rims didn’t come with tires?

Bought them from someone local who bought a Rubicon Gladiator, wanted to change wheels but keep tires. Price was right and drive was relatively close.

So if you got the tires with the wheels, that means you now have 285/70/17R tires on a Sport S? No lift? Any issues?

Yes. Stock Falken Wild peek 285/70/17 sport S normal tow package, no lift and no spacers and no issues. Keep in mind I’m not crawling rocks either.
