33's with no lift
Anyone running 285/75/16 tires with no lift?
I am getting 7189 Procomp wheels that are 16x8 with 4.5" backspace.
I have these 285/75/16 Nitto tires that I want to use. I think they are 11.5"
wide.
I want to see how far they will stick out past the wheel flare.
Will I have any rubbing issues without a lift?
Pictures please!!
I only have 400 miles on my new JK and don't want to lift it for a while.

no lift 33's
Here is a pic of mine before I lifted her, running Nitto's 295's and Procomp 7089's... No back spacing.. You can't 4 wheel hard, or they will mess with the fender flares.(and knock them loose). Normal driving is fine.

I'm currently running 285/70/17 (which is the same overall size) with no lift and no rubbing off road. I think your problem would not be the tires but BS on your rims (4.5"). Mine are 5.75" and the problem you run into with out a lift is the rear tires don't tuck up into the fenders. Mine do but you don't get that cool look with the tires sticking out past the fenders.

i've been running 33's with no lift for a few months now and i haven't run into any serious issues. my Jeep is my daily driver that i wheel hard every chance i get. i have been slow in deciding what i want to do as far as lift goes and wheeling on stock suspension has really given me a better idea of what i need. off road i do rub the rear fenders when flexed but it's an easy and cheap fix ( replacement plastic rivets ).
