Re: 8" or 10" wheels
 
He can use his stock rims can't he Jerry?

I know my 7's are fine for a 10.5 and folks use 12.5's on them, but I
have a CJ....

He asked before and I know there is a limit on tire size or tall vs
wide, for a TJ on the stock rim, I though I saw you post that info?

Re: 8" or 10" wheels
 
Oh... stock TJ rims can generally handle up to a 32x11.50 but occasionally
the rear tire's inside sidewall might rub. The factory wheel just positions
the sidewall fairly close to the rear upper shock tower. Most don't have
any rub problems with that combination though.

I would rather go with the 32's if I can be sure they will not hit anywhere
with the stock wheels.

How about it any body actually done it?
