Hey! Just wondering if any wheels exist that allow the Jeep to keep a flush fitment, I don't really like the aggressive stance look and am really just looking to put 33s on 17s for my Sahara. If you know any wheels like that or have any suggestions please drop some below, thanks!

I put 35s on my OEM wheels. Iā€™d say itā€™s a flush fitment

Rubicon OE wheels.

yup, sadly OEM seems to be the way to go, but shouldnā€™t be a problem considering I really only need 33s, once iā€™m ready to pull the trigger on it Iā€™ll definitely look for some rubicon or moab takeoffs

AEV makes wheels w/ +25 offset (there are others as well, but AEV comes to mind). This won't be flush but will keep the tire pretty close to the fender edge.

This Method wheel is in pre-order at Quadratec has a
+25. I think it would keep the tire in pretty well. Two color choices matte black or matte bronze.

Hmmm? Not sure what you mean, I got 35s (285/75R18 Duratracs) on stock Sahara wheels and they look pretty flush to me..

Wow! Your Jeep is exactly what I am trying to achieve, it looks awesome! I love the fitment, that's the look I am going for, only problem with my current setup is that I would like some 17s but you definitely opened my eyes to a new possibility.

Hey Roy, thanks!
For 17 wheels:
You can take a look at Nitto Ridge Grapplers in 35x11.5R17 if you want to achieve a similar look.

Unfortunately this is one of the few tires I know that makes skinny 35s for 17ā€ wheels. You get slightly more choices for 18ā€ wheels however.

With 11.5 on stock wheels, you might get some light rub on full lock, but you can put 2 washers behind the steering stop bolt and that should fix the rubbing issue.

Toyo Open Country AT3 also come in a 11.5" 35, and C-rated :)
They also have a C-rated in a 285/75/17 (34" tall)

I'm running Rubicon takeoffs - they're 285/70 17 BFG KO2s. If you're keeping your stock 17" wheels that's how it should look. It's not hellaflush, but it's close LOL. Hope that helps!
