I have read as much as I can but cant seem to find enough pictures or input on the subject. I have a stock jl sport and I would like to run either a 285/70/17 or 285/75/17. This will be my daily driver and I do a lot of driving for work so 35s are out of the question. I just want the Jeep to have a proper stance. I don't want the tires to look too big or too small compared to the Jeep. I was considering doing the 1.5 Teraflex leveling kit but it lifts the front 2 inches and from what I hear you can run a 33 on a stock sport so if I go that route will the tires look too small? I will be going off roading on light trails on the weekend but no rock crawling or anything extreme. I also don't know much about offset on wheels so I know this has a big role in the stance of the Jeep. I would like the tires to be about an inch or so outside the fender. Also how much mpg did you loose when you went to a 33 or 34? I'm a visual person so the more pictures the better! Thanks in advance!

This is my stock 2021 Sport S with 285/70/17… no rubbing, no issues, and what a difference. These are Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo 3. No effects on transmission shifts that i can tell. Everything seems to work as before. I will check my MPH’s against a GPS soon.

I have the same question as the op, but was also curious if there is any noticeable effect on the tranny and shift points. Appreciate your feedback and observations.

Remove the Eurofender before putting on bigger tires. There will be a slight rub if you don't.

Love this. If it’s ever missing, please don’t come look in my garage.
