If you go with our recommendations on wheel and tire fitment this will NEVER be an issue. We provide improved ground clearance under our arms. The information is out there. It is never recommended, not even by the tire companies to run a tire of that size on the stock wheels. Most 12.5 and 13.5 wide tires recommend 8.5 - 11.0 Wide Wheels for proper mounting.That’s too bad. RK has some damn nice kits. Looks like they kinda punted on the JL though. Not a whole lot of thought into clearances. I’m sure they will get it right though. That was the kit I was looking at in the near future. I think I’ll wait a while. Their joints sure are pretty.
Stock Rubi Wheels are 7.5" wide with approximately 6" of Back Spacing. Mopar with their systems for 35's recommend 8.5" wide wheels with a minimum of +12mm offset which is approximately 5.22" of back spacing or less. We guarantee the wheel and tire fitment on our website is correct and will steer you down the proper part to building a great JL. Most of our recommendations also conform to most standard aftermarket wheel offerings so there are many to choose from.
When we design the products, we look at the features we want to put in, the common wheel and tire recommendations as well as what is available in the aftermarket. Unfortunately this gentleman is outside those parameters and again, do not hesitate to call or check out or website for information. We are here to help!
