My search isn't working I tried looking for a page ... Will I run into any issues with stock wheels and a stock suspension on a 14 jku 3.75 ratio as in steering or am I in the clear ..do I need spacers or wheels with back spacing ?

Depending in how wide your tires are you may need spacers. 12.5" wide tires will most likely rub on the plastic piece below the bumper. Other than that it should be fine.

Check out the FAQS link top of page good info.Stock back spacing is 6.25 I believe, just trim the plasic valiance underneath.

You can do some trimming to get rid of the rubbing, or if you like the wider stance you can go with Wheel Spacers. Some people swear by them and love the look of the spacers. Other people (myself included) think that spacers add stress to the ball joints and axle components that are necessary. But if you're running them for clearance while you decide on wheels with proper back spacing, you won't hurt anything.

Let me know if you have any specific questions I can answer!

stock rims with 285/70-17 will rub the sway bar or at least they did on my 2014 JKUR and my buddies 2014 Sport. Both stock rims and no spacers rubbed both on sway bar and air dam. We both put on Spidertrax 1.5" spacers and no more rubbing.

I've got 295/70/17s with 1.5" Spidertrax. No lift, yet. No rubbing.

I think my friend has -12 on his wheels and it has a wide stance and no rubbing so either the right wheel or the spacers will do fine?

yes that is correct

255/80s- no rubbie

I run 285/70/17 with stock suspension and wheels on my 2012 JKU. It rubs a full crank on the sway bars on both sides. I have a TF levelling kit to put on before I go to spacers because some people say the levelling kit is enough to kill the rub, but expect spacers will be coming. I' m not big on spacers, so may adjust the steering stops instead.
