Former JK Owner - New to JL

[Drew_ATL]

I’ve owned and modded two ‘13 JK 2D Sport Wranglers- lifts, lights 35s and accessories.

Just picked up my 2020 base model JL 5spd 2D all black with the black steelies - it’s bare bones and I like it as a canvas.

Curious what the biggest all terrain white-letter tires are I can cram on them, I ran BF Goodrich ATs prior, solid tire.

I’ll eventually go all out, baby steps first.

You could run some Rubicon take-off tires (285/70/17 BFG KO2s) on your stock steelies, they have white letters and are almost 33" high, and should be able to find some on the site for a nice price.
Welcome to the site BTW!

Yep, those wheels are the same specs as the Rubicon wheels as far as width and offset, many have done that setup on their sports. Only difference you'll notice is the tire edge will be about 3/4" out from where yours are and 3/4" in from where yours are.

Here's a big thread on that, just visualize your steelies in place of the aluminum wheels
