Tire / Wheel Sizes for New Order

[Salt1972]

We're placing an order for a new JLU this week. A tire wheel pkg is part of the deal and we need some direction / advice.

We like a wide stance with tires sticking out of the wheel wells and have 2 options below. FWIW, we are leaning toward building a Sport S, but also considering just going with Rubi... If my research is accurate, these combos should fit without a lift.

Thoughts? And thank you.

I'd run 17 or 18" wheels on 33s, 20s won't leave much sidewall. That 12" wide wheel on a 12.5 width tire is also going to be very easy to damage the wheel edges as there's virtually no tire outside the wheel edge for protection.
