I've decided on BFG Mud KM2's for my new tires, and was wondering if they will fit on the stock 08 Sahara rims. I want to run 35x12 1/2x18. I believe the stock wheels are 18" , but am not sure about the width (I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong ). I've been to a few shops in my area, and 1/2 say I need new wheels, 1/2 says no..which is it ? I want to keep the stockers because of cost, as the tires will be I figure close to 400$ a piece (x 5 = 2000$ = ouch !! ). Anyone know if they will fit ?

 

they will fit but you will want to install a set of 1.5" wheel spacers to prevent any rubbing at a full turn and on your rear sway bar links. also, just to make sure, you will need a 2.5" lift or taller to clear 35's.

 

Thanks for the fast reply.. I am getting the rough Country 4" lift. Found a dealer that sells for only 655.00$ Canadian. Wasn't sure about the wheel space either..

 

good kit and it will do the trick for you just fine. just make sure to get the wheel spacers and you're golden

 

I just put 325/65/18 TOYOs on the Stock wheels no big deal but you will need spacers i know i tried it.

 

Thanks for all the help, but I forgot to ask one more question..Will a 35" tire fit on the stock rear carrier?
