Anybody running 285/75/17 tires on a stock JLUR or a JLU sport equipped with a rubicon suspension?

There are threads in the tires section and reportedly no issues, even with the spare carrier. Appear to be a good compromise from 3.15’s at only a half in smaller and rated for 7.5 in rims due to 11 in width. I wouldn’t go larger on a sport due to gearing IMO the 34’s could be iffy with sport gearing, hopefully someone with experience will reply.

Thanks for the info. I already installed the rubicon suspension, so I’m on the fence if coil spacers are also needed, possibly .5-.75”.

Do a search, there are a couple extensive threads on 285/75 installations.
