Good morning all!

I have a 2019 Sahara JLU and just got a 2 inch lift put on. This weekour tires will be in, we went with 35x12.5x17 Nitto Trail Grapplers and are putting them on Method Roost 308 17 inch wheels. With all that being said,am I going to need wheel spacers for this set up or will everything go together as is? I thought I knew, but someone said I would need them so now I’m not sure :) I would appreciate any help.

According to the specifications, those wheels have a 0mm offset. Stock is 44mm, meaning that your Method wheels are "pushed out" 1.75 inches more than stock. Given that, I can't imagine adding wheel spacers to push them out even more -- it would be ill-advised and problematic, and 0mm is already more than enough to clear 12.5" wide tires. Your wheels are inherently "spaced" already. No spacers for you.

They’ll fit and they’ll look kick-ass, but they‘re also big and heavy compared to stock. Can’t really derive your current setup from one post, but hoping you’ve researched what to expect with an aggressive 80lb load range E2 mud terrain!

Thank you both so much!

I have done a ton of research, but at newer in this so anything you think I should know I would be grateful to hear.
