No specs on the lift. Tires are 35” on 20’s.

.
here is a perfect example of a heavy 35" set up... tires weigh 78.4 lbs and wheels are 40-44lbs... total of 118.4-122.4 lbs for a 35" tire...

Thanks Zee for the info. The weight of the wheels and tires is what is really holding me back on making up my mind. I don't want 40lbs wheels. I want the wheels to stay somewhere around the stock weight. I am looking forward to hearing more about your jeep in the coming days.

i debated back and forth between 35's and 37's... i will mostly use my Jeep as DD but being close to MOAB and wanting it to still look good and perform decently i was back and forth. Thanks to all the feedback from guys on this forum and when my local Jeep mechanic bought himself a new Rubicon and did the MOPAR 2" with 37's after he did one for a customer and was so impressed i had to pay attention... he's a big Jeeper in Moab and his last JK was pretty modded out... he couldn't believe how well the 2" Mopar lift worked with the 37's, this is a conservative guy, especially when it comes to money... i went ahead and ordered my wheels and tires and lift and went 37's.. my wheels only weigh 27lbs and the tires are 69 lbs so i dont think it will feel that heavy. Its is really easy to end up with 40lb wheels and 84lb 37" tires if your not careful and then things get pretty heavy and might affect the Jeep as a DD... my new Jeep should be in anytime and will post pics and feedback as soon as i can to help others who are on the fence.
Good call what wheel and tires are you getting?

Fuel Podium 17x9" with 4.5" back space -12 offset... Tires are MasterCraft (Made by Cooper) Courser MXT 37x12.5x17 Load range D 69lbs

https://tiresize.com/tires/Mastercraft/Courser-MXT-37X12.50R17.htm

Fuel has 2-3 wheels (Anza and others) that are only 25-27lbs... pretty light... i order some Black Rhino Barstows and sent them back after i weighed them, they were close to 38lbs... Really like the Method Racing Line too, some are pretty light.

Try any of the AllOut Off Road stores around HTown. Heard nothing but good things.

Will 35" Nitto Ridge Grapplers fit and safely work with the stock Rubi wheels which apparently are 7.5" wide?

Looks great! Wow, it doesn't even look like it needs a lift. I too am having the Mopar 2" lift installed next week. I am still fighting the should I keep the factory wheels or go after market, and should I go 35" or 37" :angry:

yeah, looks great without a lift. Looks just like my 2.5" teraflex lift on my '14 jkur with 35s. It did rub a little bit with that setup but it wasn't bad.
