The difference is the offsets. Stock Rubicon wheels have a +45mm offset and the Mopar wheels have a +12mm offset. That moves the Mopar wheel center over 1 1/4" out. Then add the wider tire. I can see why some are saying 315's don't rub with the stock Rubicon wheels and other say they do rub but have different wheels. Apples and oranges.
Not really. Fenders seem to be cut to fit 33s perfectly

A 35" tire (less than an inch closer to fender) seems to just about fill that gap perfectly for many, maybe just grazing the fender liners at actual full stuff (like in the video), but not touching the actual flares. Thumbs up from me!

315/70R17 KO2s on stock rims. Considerable rubbing in the rear of the back fender liners (covering the pinch seam) on mild trails. Haven't noticed any rubbing up front yet.

Had to copy @Warpath and got the Dirty Life wheels and Nitto Ridge Grapplers as well (35x12.5r17 no lift). Did the wheels in gunmetal tho. Thanks for the inspiration @Warpath!

I've been looking for the right look....THIS IS IT!!!
Did you have to "beef" up the spare tire carrier?

Looking the shot of the rear, it doesn’t appear anything was done to the tire carrier or tail gate. Also, before my lift and after the 35s...with the steel bumper...my tire rubbed the bumper a bit. It probably was ok but I later raised it because the ParkSense senors read the spare and constantly went off. Then I got the Mopar tail gate reinforcement because I a bit OCD, but later returned it. Plenty of people on here throw a 35 on the back with a stock set up.

I bottomed it out at 22" high on rear before anything rubbed on stock rubi suspension with 315 K02s. Front opposite corner still had 1" of clearance at that height.

I think I need to take some new pictures. 35`BFG KM3 Mopar Gladiator wheels
What bumper loop did you add to the top? I like the look. Is it a Mopar one?

This wheel and tire combo is pretty heavy, like 120ish lbs. I ended up putting the Evo tire carrier on.
I love the look and will be placing an order soon. Are there any other things I need to consider....speedometer calibration, tire sensors, etc???
Is there anything you would do differently?

So what is everyone setting the tire pressure at with 35s on the stock rims?
On the stock Rubicon 33s I was setting pressure at 33 psi cold / 35 psi hot was perfect. I have the 35s set at that currently but this seems like a little too much. Anyone done a chalk test yet on 35s?

Hello, Yes I did go with the overpriced Mopar light hoop. At the time that was all that was available, it does fit like a glove for what it`s worth.

Installed yesterday...20x9 Fuel Vapor (Matte Black) with a +1 Offset. Tires are 35 12.5 20 GoodYear DuraTrac's. Tire pressure was set at 38psi. Raised the 3rd brake light to the top position and the spare (in it's factory position) does NOT rub on the steel bumper. So far, so good.
