Getting ready for the rain? In this forum I have read mixed results of using 35s without a lift.

It depends on a couple things. Offset of wheels, width of tire, and make of tire since they actually vary slightly. That being said, I had nitto terra grapplers 35x12.5x18 on fuel trophy wheels and it didn't rub at all. It was just temporary until i had my lift on but no problems in the meantime. Don't expect to be able to climb any rocks though!

An EVO mfg. 2.5" spacer lift w/ shock extension brackets will get you enough room to fit 35s without rubbing and they are fairly inexpensive.

Imho, I’d wait till you can lift it and do tires and lift at the same time. Because you’re gonna rub, every speed bump, backing out of inclined driveway and turning the wheels, etc, etc....it won’t hurt anything but that would drive me nuts....

here was my jeep stock height and no lift with 35" tires. did not rub on speed bumps, driveways, or anything at all. just couldn't go off roading until i got the lift on

What about turning full lock? What does it rub again? LCA or sway bar?
