Don't want to lessen the steering radius, that's one of the things I love most about the Jeep. It gets me out of most situations I get myself into.

What is listed in the specs can be very different than what you find when you actually pull out the tape measure. Given the same stated size, both height and width can vary quite a bit between mfg's, and even between different tires from the same mfg.
Just one of the reasons you are not going to find a 'clear cut answer'. Others might be fender choice, actual lift height (which could be which of the dozen different stock coils came on your particular jeep vs what the next guy has), how much extra weight is bolted/welded on, how centered you axles are, whether you disconnect, etc, etc, etc ...

I installed a 2" aev lift on my buddies new rubicon and then slapped my wheels on it so he could see how it looked with 285/75-17 toyos and pintlers. he did not want to take them back off and talked me into selling them to him.

See now that looks perfect. Saw a 2 door with 35's the other day and tires look a little big for me. I think those 34's look great. That the AEV 2" spacer lift? Would you be able to send a picture straight down the line of the flares to see how far they stick out? Thanks

Taller tires on stock rubicon?
Know many forms of this question are asked, but there never seems to be a clear cut answer on the biggest tire you can run on a stock Rubicon. Asked around many of the local shops as well and get different answers.
I have a 2013 2-door Rubicon with AEV wheels (Backspacing 5.2", Offset +10mm). Can I run BFG Mud KM2 285/70R17 (33" x 11.5") or 255/80R17 (33.3" x 10") or 285/75R17 (33.9" x 11.3") without any issues of tires rubbing on any part of the vehicle while at it's full capability offroad?
Thanks, I appreciate any feedback.
