Tires are 35x12.5x17 and they measure 34 inches from the floor even though they are 35's. The BFG KM2's have a tendency to flex the sidewall a little bit plus they run a little smaller. To be honest... I was about to buy a set of Goodyear MTR's with Kevlar, but after doing a lot of research, the Goodyear runs true to size and will run almost an inch bigger in total diameter. I can tell you that even that extra inch (.5 on each side) would have required me to trim the pinch seams. It would have been really tight. That was something I did not want to do on a brand new Jeep (just personal preference here). After it was mounted I was glad I chose it because I like the BFG tread pattern a little better.

I'll see if I can get some more pics up this weekend from in front and behind. The wheels are the 17x8.5 AEV Pintlers in Matte Black. They stick out about a half an inch or so from the fender, just perfect IMO.

I'm buying tires within the next week. I have a 4.5in rubicon express lift. Would 35's be to small? Especially since I'm gonna be changing the bumpers and adding flat fender flares?

IMO even withouth the fender flares you should go with 37's. That's a tall lift that you have. I have a 4 inch on 35's with stock fenders and I'm at the limit IMO. Check out my pics, you'll see for yourself.

Not a bad place to be stationed, in the Keys, I'm jealous. I will be going down that way in Oct., going to Key West for a weekend. I am in Largo (Pinellas county, Tampa Bay area) not Key Largo. Its like a 4 hour drive to Key Largo then another....forever to KW.

Ahhh, pardon me! Totally forgot about the other Largo! Well enjoy KW! When I was stationed in St. Pete, I lived in Pinellas as well, Park BLVD and Belcher RD
