Hello All, I have a stock Jk with 3.73 and I want to put bigger tires, I currently have stock rubicon wheels and tires which people tell me are almost 33 I Had Procomp 33x12 on my tj (RIP) and they looked a lot bigger can I run 35's on my stock 3.73 or is 33 as big as I can go, I know I also need to change my wheels because I want 12.5 wide tires what type of back spacing will i need for the tires to clear. Thank you for your time ThumbUpJeep

ya you could run them but it would be super slow. a while back i used a  4 door rubicon with a 2 inch lift and the stock mud tires and i think those were 32 or 33's, but metric sizes. but of course you can run 35's, it'll just be alot slower than before

Slow isn't exactly the word...it will lack acceleration and be hard on the auto trans or the clutch, whichever it has.
