I'm about to put my 2.5" coil kit on my jeep, and I'm about to purchase new tires. I was looking at going with 305-70-17 on stock wheels. With this set-up will I be ok without spacers. Also how would this kit look with my stock 29s on?

If you rub at full turn, then just drop a washer in the steer stops. See the write up on project-jk. Then get the spacers or see if you can live with the reduced turn radius. Mine rub with spacers so insert washer on each side and for about 25 cents you are good to go.

Putting bigger tires on gets more and more expensive. I'll jus order the spacers next week.
