I will be getting my jeep in a few weeks and was thinking of upgrading the wheels to 35" and 20"rims. I mostly do city driving but want to hit the trails whenever I can.

Max i would go is 18"s. If you plan on trailing your jeep, more rubber = better traction when aired down. You're better off with 17"s or even 16"s but i find them a little more unstable for road driving. Wobbles more. Nice middleground are the 17"s and more tire selection to choose from.

3.21s with 35"s is pushing the limit. 3.73s aren't bad, 4.10s are preferable. Max i would go with 3.21s is 33"s, even with the pentastar
