But of course. Larger and heavier tyres and rims which stick out further will cause ball joints and bearings to wear out faster not to mention tie rod ends and shocks.
Not a JK thing...happens to every other 4wd on the market. The moment I put 33" tyres on my GQ the front bearings needed to be tightened every oil change and I flogged out a rear wheel bearing within the first few thousand KM (was probably near death to begin with though).
That's part of the fun of modifying. Apparently.
