I bought a set of 1.5" Spidertrax spacers, as I don't want to invest in new wheels at this time. I have a 2012 JKU SPORT with 3.21 gears in 3.6 automatic. I am currently stock, no coil spacers or anything. I won't be able to lift within the next few months. This is my dd, and it will be mostly highway here in North Central Fl. If taken off-road, it would not involve rocks. Mud is a possibility if it lays ahead on the trail. Mud bogs are not in my future. Would both these setups run without rubbing? The A/T II's would be 34", while the M/T's would be 33"'s. Thank you in advance.
2 inch lift, NO wheel spacers and 285/75/17 do NOT rub

Another option that may be good for you on the rear is the JKS ACOS. It will give you 1" of lift in the back and is adjsutable up to 3.5" with the turn of the top ring so if you need the extra height for heavy trips you can dial it up and back down for everyday driving. It works the same as a coil over shock. It is a bit pricy but a great product.

You have to be close to the sway bar in front at full turn and very close to the driver side rear control arm if running stock rims or your tires are narrower then my toyos.

Actually, the rear JKS ACOS is adjustable from 2-4 inches. Fronts are1- 3.5.
