Have a 2021 JLUR on order.

Looking to switch wheels and tires with the following:

KMC KM529 17x8.5 +34 offset
315/70/17 BFG ko2s
No lift

The calculators say it will be .21” closer and stick .99” further out from stock setup.

Think it will hit any components on the inside or rub the fenders?

I am assuming not just looking to confirm before pulling the trigger.

Those would be pretty close to the AEV Pintlers that are recommended by many to work well on Rubicons w/ that tire set.

Your set would be 9mm in from the AEVs, not much TBH :)
I would imagine it would get close to the suspension w/ the sways disconnected under full flex, so YMMV :)
