Default 285/70/17 BFG AT's
First post so don't kill me. 08 Rubicon with AEV front bumper, 1.75" front spacers to level it off after the extraweight of the bumper and new 285/70/17 BFG AT's on the stock steel. Unfortunatlly I don't do as much wheeling as I would like to so had to ditch the noise makers after 20k. But I do like the extra width and height the the new tires provide over stock. What do you think?

Welcome to the forum. Your Jeep looks great. If I did more street driving I would have gone with an AT tire too. Enjoy it.

No the M/Ts I got rid of were. The A/Ts are almost silent.

no lift at all? I am curious because I have a 2010 jk and want to put a more aggressive tire on it without a lift.

The spacers I put on pretty much leveled out the front end after the the bumper was installed. If I remember correctly the bumper dropped the front end about 3/4" and the extra 1" leveled out the rest of the stock rake. They do rub a little in a full lock turn with some articulation but not much. I may eventually install spacers or get new wheels with less back spacing. But over all I happy with the ride and look.
