I don't mind the stock rims, so wanted to see if anyone is running a size up (35s) on a stock Rubicon rim and what that would look like.

I am so confused. I have been reading many different threads, and now I have no idea what I'm doing. I have a 2020 JLUR with stock wheels and tires. I actually really like the stock wheels, but wanted to get 35's and no lift. But then I think I read that you can't do that, you need to BFG K02 315/70R17. Is that what the Mojito in this thread, above, has? I don't want to do lift or spacers. Help?

I just put BFG MudTerrain 35x12.50x17s on my stock rims. See the difference in the pics. They're fantastic. No lift, but I got about 1 to 1 1/2 from the tires alone

Going with a 315/70R-17 is virtually to a 35 inch tire as well. There are many that have installed that size.

Please let us know if we can help.

This. I run 315's but can't imagine a 35x12.50 being different enough to be an issue.

Looks awesome. Can you comment on the difference between the KO2 and the KM3? Most MT's get louder with miles, how many miles are on them? Thanks

So I was thinking that the MTs would be louder too.. Compared to the KO2 there is NO noise difference! I'm really shocked, thos the KM3 is a slightly updated design. That being said, with such big treadblocks and shoulders, if they're not rotated consistently, they'll probably get noisy.
