If you believe what you read on the internet, if you put larger tires on your Jeep your brakes will fail, you’ll burst into flames, the climate will warm, it will rain for 40 days and 40 nights and Armageddon will occur. So, what’s the truth? How much larger over stock do you need to go before you start negatively affecting your braking abilities? I’m looking at upgrading from stock 245/75/17s to Toyo OC 285/70/17s and I don’t think this is an issue. But, that brings up the question regarding Willys and Rubicon packages. They come with larger tires, do they come with larger brakes or are they the same ones as the Sport and Sport S have? Inquiring minds would like to know.
