Thank you in advance for the help.

I have a 2010 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport, I currently have stock rims on it and do not plan on lifting it.
I called the local Jeep dealer to ask them what are the biggest rims and tire combination my Jeep can support without lifting it. Shockingly the Parts manager of the Jeep dealership said he doesnt have the answer.
So here I am asking real Jeep owners for help.

I like the off-road tires look. I am thinking I could be able to get 17s and thick tires and not have to worry about any issues. Does anyone know where I can figure this out? Or does anyone have an answer?

so essentially what I'm asking is what are the various combinations of threads and rim size that my Jeep can support without any issues?

thanks again!

With no issues? Then the answer is what is on it now. Anytime you modify something, there will always be issues. It just depends on how willing you are to deal with the issues.

Are you planning on wheeling anytime?

If you trim your fenders or go with flat fenders you should be able to go up to a 35 if you do not plan on wheeling. Where you run into will be in flex. I had 315/75R17 on my Jeep on stock lift and did just fine, but there was some rubbing when I stuffed the front wheels.

As for the size of wheels, some stock Sahara's come with 18 inch wheels. I have even seen 24's on a non lifted Jeep Mall Crawler. The answer lies in just how much money you are willing to pay.

Going for look without lifting - use 1.5" quality wheel spacers on your stock wheels with skinny 33" tires. Make sure to remove all lock washers on rotor studs. Skinny tires being less than 11" wide or 275x70x? Go with aggressive tread but understand you will decrease mpg due to rolling resistance. You may rub the control arms at full turn but can easily fix this by adjusting the steer stops.

You can place 3/4" puck spring spacers in front only to decrease nose down rake giving the appearance of a lift. This will increase aerodynamic drag though, more mpg loss.

End result: very inexpensive custom lifted look with no lift using all stock springs. Increased track placing wheels further out but still under the fenders. Wider track gives less body roll in turns.

It depends on how much you want to modify your Jeep. Lots of LCG people on this forum have put 37's on with Just a leveling kit and some Metal cloak fenders. Your going to have to trim the pinch-seam. Probably have to run without front fender liners for the extra .5" of clearance. Also bump stops in the front and rear. You can also do steer stops. or just Run a wheel with 4" of back space
