A couple posts above asked about 33 Duratrac's... these are 33x12.5x15. I finally have pics of my new to me 08 Rubi unlimited. I posted earlier in this thread with my 2door X. I had a Tera BB on the X, the Rubi has a Tera 2.5" coil. I wanted bigger tires when I first got it done, but these tires w/ 4:10's are just so sweet, I think I will be good for a while

The Nitto's will need the spacer for sure.
The Duatracs are narrower and you will only need to put a couple of washers on the steering stops to prevent rubbing at full lock. You may still rub when the tires are fully stuffed, but only very slightly, nothing to be concerned about.
That's for width. For height you can fit both these tires with the stock suspension, but I wouldn't want to wheel that way, they'll take out a fender. A 2" lift will take care of that.
I'm running those Duratracs on the stock rims with a 2" lift and it's great.

Thanks for the response I think I'm just gonna do a 2.5 inch Tera Flex lift and go with the Nitto Terra Grappler MT... i like the aggressive look of the tire those are the ones I really want. Now I have two more question for you...
?1-Do you need the 1.5 inch spacers for a 33'' x 12.5 -18 Tire if you do a 2.5 inch
lift.
?2-Is the TeraFlex 2.5" Lift Kit with Shocks a good kit and are there any other pieces I would need that are not included in the kit.
Thanks to everyone for the help...I'm really lost on all this stuff so all the help I can get is greatly appreciated...

Just installed 2.5" Rough Country w/ 2.2 Shocks on Sunday and added 275/70/18 Duratracs on Monday. Waiting for the 1.5" spacers to be shipped. There is slight rubbing at full lock.

1. Depends on how much back spacing is on the rims..
2. You may want to get front and rear track bars just to center your axles, but it's not 100% needed. Especially with the new track bar bracket they changed to in the new kits. http://www.teraflex.biz/jk-wrangler-...inch-lift.html
Some guys have also gone so far as getting Front LCAs.. Im one of those guys and I feel it rides better then stock
Here is a tread that helped me a lot...
