THe brake calipers is basically going to strike the caliper, nor could you use stick on weights to balance the wheels as they'll smash on the capliers. Also the actual wheel nuts are so large they dont even fit into the AEV wheel nut recesses!!
It seems the 18" ones will be the go for this Jeep. There are some nice BFG 18" AT's available but they're around $500 a corner. I reckon the stock 18"s powdercoated black with wheel spacers and 285/70/18"s will be the go

I am assumed 17" because this guy in the US has 255/75/17s on his 2011 Overland.

Perhaps he got the right 17" rims and maybe we cant get them in aus? I have sent him a pm to see if he can let me know more details.
These are the closest 18" after-market rims I have found here, their offset is 40mm though, will that be ok can you recommend anything else?

If I have to go 18 AT's then BFG is the go? Coopers have some too, Do the BFG's come in 265/60/18? or do I have to go to 265/65/18?
Yep I knew Rims and Tyres were not going to be cheap in 18's but I did budget for this, in the end I want the car looked after when its offroad.
I have QL so I am not sure if that affect anything else?
