| I am looking to find a set of five - 35 x 12.5 tires for my Jeep. I have brand new 255/75R/17 (set of 5) to sell or trade. | |

| If you don't already have wheel spacers, you'll need those also for any tires over stock size. Even 285/70r17s (33s) will rub at full turn. | |

With the factory wheels the oversize tires will rub on the frame when turning sharp even with a lift. If you have aftermarket wheels with more offset the spacers would not be needed. | |

| thanks Duke! With a 3" lift & 4.63" backspacing (per the manufacturer) and 35s I still rubbed on the swaybar at full compression with the wheels turned at full lock.
btw Duke, when you wheeling with us again? | |

I had moved to the Valley for 18 months or so. I'm now back in SA and fully settled. I've got to swap out the gas tank on the Jeep, which should be done this next week, then I should be ready to play. | |
