Default Will 35 BFG A/T on 2013 JKU rubicon with Bushwakers Fit until lift is installed?

I have a 2013 JKU rubicon and I just put bushwacker fender flares on today. I have 17x9 addicts wheels and have a guy who wants to trade me his fairly new 35 BGF AT tires for my rubicon tires. I have a RK 2.5 flex lift on order but I was wondering if I could run the 35s before I installed my lift with out rubbing on road only. The BFGs measure at 34.4 inch. I also have ace rock rails. Thanks in advanced. Doug.

Thanks for the response. I am worried about rubbing on my rock rails. Think I will play it safe and wait until I get the lift on. The guy wanted to make the tire swap soon but he will have to wait.

the rock rails are easy enough to take off. they wont rub much and it is safe to have 35s on there... just go slow.

we had 35's on our stock jkur for like 3 months

Thanks for the info. It's only temp until lift shows up. I was just concerned about rubicon rock rails and suspension in front. The BFG AT are a little smaller then 35s so hoping I will be good. Thanks again.
