Forgive me if this has been a topic before. I did a search, honestly! Will the stock Rubicon wheels and tires fit on an unmodified Sahara. I looking to purchase them as well as the stock bumpers.

I would say absolutely! I just stuffed 17” wheel with 315/70/17 tires (34”) on my Sahara and they fit fine. No rub at full lock on road only. I do plan on swapping springs and shocks (Rubicon) here shortly for added breathing room. Here is a recent shot of the wheels and tires I threw on.

Thanks for the quick response! I thought I read somewhere that you could do that. The dealer has only four take offs of a JT. So depending on the price they come back with I May go for it. Not a very good pic. That’s what they sent me.

Keep an eye on this forum for wheels and tires. Most rubi wheels/tires/tpms can be had for ~$1000-1200. And that’s for 5. I personally got mine for $800 with ~8k miles but don’t think that’s too common. I would personally wait and buy a set of 5, but that’s just me. Plenty of people sell their stock wheels and tires so finding some shouldn’t be too big of an issue.

Yes, I have Moab wheels (essentially black Rubi’s) and 33” KO2’s on my Sahara without issue!
