The only vehicle i had 35s on was my f-250 and it would wear my bearings out in a hurry(could be the wheel backspacing),fuel mileage dropped, steering components wore out quicker but maybe thats cause it was a big truck that wasnt built for it like these jeeps. 35's give you one inch clearance over 33's but issues like those stated above, i just dont think are worth it, just a personal preference JK's do look great with 35's and bigger though.

Well I was wanting 33s or something close but the 35s were free that's why I started this thread to see if they would fit..
If not I was just going to buy 33s
