People underestimate how good 33x12.5x17 tires look on a 2.5" lift.
@KJsProjects 17 күн бұрын
Yes, it does look good with stock fenders. Also if you do daily drive your lifted Jeep, you will get better gas mileage compared to 35s.

I had the same issue with my jeep. Have a 07 wrangler I got years back that came with 315s on it. Took it off roading and found out the fenders needed to be dealt with. I just cut them for the time being. When I got new tires the slider did rub now and then. This has all been years back. The jeep is now going in for some major upgrades. Basically just about everything frame down is getting replaces. Not cheep.

It’s amazing how far we’ve come over the years. I ran 37s on my JT non Rubi with just a 2” spacer in the front before going to a 4.5” lift. My wife’s JLU sport has been on 35s since 2018 on just a 2.5” spacer lift all the way around.
@KJsProjects 10 ай бұрын
Agreed! It used to be 33s took a decent lift to run correctly.

This is a great video. I'm running into a similar issue with my 2017 JKU Sport... 35'" tires... wait, I need stronger axles... and a lift... which means I need new driveshafts and regeared and re-calc'd on speed. I've got a $14k shopping list now!
@KJsProjects 2 жыл бұрын
Oh I know the feeling. I have a list a mile long of upgrades. My thought is to start with things that will work no matter what, like the fenders. Then try to plan your build so that it will work together. You might need have parts in your garage waiting on other upgrades, but it's the reality.
@anonymous5095 Жыл бұрын
Just pulled the trigger and regeared my sport, added lockers, complete 3.5 inch short arm lift with 1” coil spacers on top of that , drag link upgraded, tie rods upgraded, trussed and sleeved front axle, added C on knuckle, fox shocks, sway bars upgraded, new track bars, sway bar disconnects, ball joints, u joints, driveshafts, bumpers, fenders, inner fenders, winch, and a bunch of other stuff. Expect to pay around 11-12k if you can do all the work yourself. 15-17 if you need a shop to do it.

I drove one and it was nice, but it was also orange and the wrong trim, so I knew I wasn't buying it. I was also used to the JK as my brother inlaw had one, so that's what I got.

What bumper do you have on?
@KJsProjects 7 ай бұрын
Thanks for comment. It is the factory steel bumper from Jeep. If you can find one, I recommend them for light to moderate wheeling. If you are going to do tougher stuff, I would suggest a quality aftermarket one.

Is the Rubicon a Recon, or Hard Rock ed.? It isn't a stock Rubicon, because the rock sliders (rails) are flat to the body. My current ride has the same sliders and bumper, though it looks like your end caps are removed.
@KJsProjects 2 жыл бұрын
Mine is the Hard Rock edition and yes I removed the front bumper end caps. It's a little better offroad and I think it looks better.

If you put 35s on without a lift dude just wasting time it's worse than a stock Jeep with regular tires don't listen to people who say yes you can run 35s without a lift my opinion is coming from experience and actually seeing it
@KJsProjects Жыл бұрын
You can do it if you are staying on pavement. I ran 6 Badge of honor trails in this configuration and it did it. Did it do it well? No, I was constantly on my skid plates. Sometimes you don't have money to do both at the same time, so you can do either one and then get the other when funds allow. If you are going to run 35s and wheel, get a 2.5 inch lift.
@ThePunisher123pXxbox 2 жыл бұрын
While you can run a 35 with no lift. Don’t be that guy, just get a budget boost with a pair of control arm brackets. 35s with no lift is the fastest way to look like a pavement princess

All the upgrades to fit the 35s, why not just lift it? 2.5” lift is cheaper than those fenders 🤷🏻
@KJsProjects 11 ай бұрын
Actually the EAG fenders were about $200 for the front new and I found the rears (never installed) for $100 on Marketplace. This was more of a, can I do it and wheel. The short answer is yes, the long answer is a lift will wheel better, but sometimes it's not in the budget or someone's skill set. Thanks for the comment!

KZfaq the types of lifts that you can get. A 3" spacer will do the trick without messing up the geometry on front transaxle. (THAT'S what you better worry about.. youtube it). I also went to "negative" rims.. (**They push the tires out) My tires poke out about 2-3"... But it allows room to turn. LAST, you need a new extra tire carrier on the back door. It just pokes out more to fit the 35's.
@KJsProjects 2 жыл бұрын
Yep, I am planning on getting a full 2.5 inch lift soon. I am leaning towards the metal cloak overlander kit. I mainly wanted to see if you can fit the 35s on a JK and reasonably wheel it. Short answer is you can, but you will be on your skip plates...a lot.

Do you need to regear for 35s?
@KJsProjects Жыл бұрын
Do you absolutely have to, depends on your Jeep's gearing. If you have 3.21s I would say definitely yes. If you have 3.73s you might get away with it, but I really didn't like how it performed. You might be fine with it. If you have 4.10s I think they are the best gear for the 35s if you drive it on road 90% of the time. I did a video where I installed 4.56s and they do great, but highway RPMs are too high for my liking. I wish someone made 4.30s by my calculations, but no one does. (This is assuming you have a JK with the 3.6 and automatic transmission)
