Tire size on stock Moabs ?
I'm due for new tires and have decided on 285/75/17 KM2's . My question is can I mount that size tire on my stock Moab rims without using spacers ?

Tire size on stock Moabs ?
FWIW, I had 285/70/17 KM2's on stock Moabs, they fit just fine. I have Spydertrax spacers, but I'm not 100% sure they were needed to prevent any rubbing for that size tire, I put than on as soon as I got home from the tire shop and have never taken them off. That size is only slightly larger than a stock Rubi KM if I remember right. Hope this helps.

I needed spacers and used spidertrax 1.5" on my 14 rubicon. I ultimately ended up going to a wider rim with less backspacing. here is the comparison. they are a lot bigger then stock. The ones mounted on jeep are 275/70-17. They rubbed on sway bar and very close to the driver side rear lower control arm without spacers.

If you are going to play in the rocks I would skip the AEV's if you are thinking of getting pintlers. If I had to do it over I would go another route.
