Please help! I am going to upgrade the tires on my stock 17" rims but cant make up my mind on which. I know the size is about the same but I keep going back and forth. I also don't want to re-gear right now. Please post picks if u have any.

Goodyear- 285/70R17 33x11.5 or 305/70R17 34.1x12.2

if you dont want to worry that much about regearing, go 33"... I have an Auto Unlimited with 33" KM2's and i already want to regear as its annoying the way its drives now. So as soon as my 33"s wear down, going bigger and regear.....

Now it depends on what rig, gear, lift you have. I am running 34” (305/70/17) MTR Wrangler in my Rubicon (4.10) with 4” superlift without any problem

I got some 33's but the actual tire size was 32.4, so I would go by the actual tire size rather than the rated size. Had I know the actual size I would have went with the 34's (33.6).

That 34.1x12.2 probably requires a minimum 8" wide rim although you can fit on to your stock rims. Lots of people do that. Also, you will need wheel spacers for that wide of a tire and and a lift.
