For your DD on something that rarely leaves the pavement, I would go with the 33's. If you were off roading your DD then I would say go with the 35's and a mild lift but gas mileage is going to suffer go to the 35's

i did my homework like some old timers will tell you if done right 33s on price will not be to much differents from 35s. 35s tires are about $30-50 a tire more that 33s, rims you will need new ones unless puting spacers and using oem, lifts you can run a 2.5" with control arms for around $1000 and it works with both tires, personally for 35s would go with 3" or 3.5 lift which would run around and extra $500. And now about the extra money that and most improtant 33s and 35s will need regearing. Your regular on your jk "stock" tire is around 36 pounds the average 33s is 58-64 pounds and 35s 60-68 pounds so if done right you need to regear both sizes so go with 35s and that what i'm saving for and that's for a DD on NYC
