The 33″ BF Goodrich All Terrain tires that come with a Rubicon are real nice but they are conservative and just feel small and skinny. We’ve decided to not go big or aggressive with the 4xe and the 35″ size of the same tire is large enough and wider to give the Jeep a proper …
The new Jeep Wrangler JL Rubicon features hi-line fenders as standard equipment. These fenders provide a larger opening that allows 35 inch tires to be installed with no lift and 37 inch tires with a 2″ lift. So that being said it seems that 37″ tires will become entry level tires on the new JL, …
Well on the road to completion of our $3K JK Project our next step was tires. To recap, we installed a Teraflex 2.5″ Budget Boost lift and a set of Teraflex 1.25″ wheel spacers now it’s officially time to squeeze a set of 35’s on the stock Rubicon wheels.

So after weeks of thinking of what the first set of aftermarket tires that will go on the new 2012 Jeep we decided on Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac. Why? We decided to take a different approach with the new Jeep and keep it like most Jeepers do. A daily driver that sees weekend trail use, …
We put together a little reference guide for those of you wondering what size tires will fit under your Jeep. These are general guidelines, your vehicle may be different. We are only going to cover what we most commonly see on the trail and we are only going to cover Jeeps lifted via a spring …
The jeepfan.com CJ-5 has been running the same set of 33×12.5 BFGoodrich Mud Terrain tires for 11 years. The tires served the Jeep well but it was time for a fresh look.
