Will 33s fit Stock Jk Suspension
I currently own a 2008 Sahara 2 door with stock suspension. I have finally saved enough money to get new wheels and tires. I was looking at getting Nitto Trail Grapplers in 285/70R17 and getting Mickey Thompson wheels in 17x9 with 4.5 inch Back Space (-12 offset). Would I have any issues with rubbing? I will be getting a 3.5-inch lift a little down the road but for now, I need to replace my tires and wheels. What do you guys all think? I know for me at least this can be very confusing with the offset and backspacing.

Absolutely! I was looking at the Toyo open country but ended up getting a whale of a deal on some Falken Wildpeak AT3. I got them in 275/70/18 on my Sahara wheels. I have an 09 JK X it came with the Sahara wheels. No spacers yet and it does rub at full lock. BUT u turns aren't terrible, highway riding is fine. When you disconnect off road it bites really bad so be prepared to get some aftermarket fenders. I broke mine flexing the other day. They look mean and are quiet so it's a plus!
