Hey thanks for the quick response. Looks like the 315s will suit me. I have a AEV 2.5 lift and wheels with 5.2 backspacing so clearance shouldn’t be a problem. I was also on the market for a tire carrier and thanks to your video I’ll be purchasing the R&R Spartacus carrier. Thanks again
Hi I’m looking to getting the same tires. I’m debating between 315/70/17 or 35x12.5/17. Can you please measure how tall your 315s are mounted. I’ve read they may run a little small. Your feedback will be greatly appreciated.
The tires stand right at 33.75" tall on the Jeep (although they're listed at 34" tires). They're also very wide so the wheels with an updated backspacing/offset or wheel spacers are needed. I have a 2" spring spacer lift and the only thing that rubs is the plastic air dam under the front bumper. I like the tires a lot, but they're very heavy so be aware your stopping distance will be extended with bigger tires if you don't also upgrade your brakes. (I'm still running stock brakes at the moment.) Also, if this is your first time with the larger tires make sure you account for the extra height. The standard jack won't cut it after adding the taller tires. Hope this helps. Good luck!

Awesome video! Just purchased a set of these wheels from 4 wheel parts. Was wondering how long it took them to arrive 🤔

Hey do you have a 2" spacer lift in front only or all around?
