Default 33's and no lift!!!
Hello all!

Just a quick question, I have a set of 33's coming on my Wrangler (from the dealership, 17x9 Mickey Thompson Rims, 5 x 5 Backspacing and 33/12.5R17 Tyres). It seems that the truck will arrive before the lift! Not that I am complaining!

Will there be any issues with running a Stock Unlimited on 33" Tyres on and off road for a while?

I am assuming that, since the Rubi has 32's standard, there should be no real issue!

Thanks (oh, and hi John and Kari, yes, the Wrangler is in Hobart and we should have our hands on it on Friday! Stuart, if you are reading this, trip on the 20th will be the maiden voyage, just don't tell anyone! Want it to be a surprise when we roll up!).

I plan on doing some serious offroading with no lift and 33's same up... when I had my TJ I got told I could not drive 31's without lift when going offroad, so I did it and it was fine... so I am doing the same thing when my TK gets here!!

yeah I was just basing that purely on what i read in the latest Jeep Australia mag with the black jk 4dr onthe front so not personal experience.

If the above guys say it will be fine then im sure it will.
