Why not go 34's. I am running basically a 1.5 lift in front and 7/8" in the rear on 315/70r17 goodyear duratracs and I think it looks great (of course I would, its mine)

 

Here you go, 34" Toyos, on a 2.5" lift just installed today. 285/75R18

 

35's suck b/c of the price... but if you get 33's you will see other JK's driving around on 35's and regret not spending that extra money to get the 35s.

I know at least 3 people who went 33's to save money and ended up selling them to get 35's in less than a year. Save yourself the heartache and money and get the 35s

 

Ever decide on tires? Really liked how your wheels turned out. Post 'em up!

 

33's no lift

 

happy cant believe everything you read I don't like 35s look to big unless you have lift
I don't intend on lifting mine if I can help it

 

I dd with 3.21s and 35s with heavy steel wheels and hate it. Anything over 65 and I can't keep over drive. With that being said I am a little bit of a speed demon so it might not bother you, especially with 33s. My parents just bought a jku and bought my 33s from me and their jk is just fine wit an auto and 3.73s. Overall I think you will be fine either way. Mine is the black one

 

I went with 315/70/17's and really like them. They fill the fender up pretty well and were cheaper than actual 35's. Note- the Hankook MT's that I got measure closer to a 33 however.

 

x2, on what the majority recommend. Get the 35s rather than the 33s. This will save you money in the long run rather than to spend twice for tires. With the 3.73 gearing and AT trans on the 3.6L you should be fine. Lastly, the 35s just look great on unlimiteds with 2.5-3" lifts...

35s



33s - ending up only running them for 1.5yrs before moving up to 35s

I just upgraded to 35" Trail Grapplers from 33" Federals and the ride quality is a night and day difference plus my MPG's have gotten better. Granted I have 20" wheels but I would never go back to 33's.
