how hard to run 32's on a TJ?
I will be doing my regearing soon for my TJ (thanks for all the help, guys
and gals!) and that means I can use bigger tires. I don't want to go any
bigger than 33's for sure, would be happy with 31's, but might go with
32's if it did not require a lot of hassle. Would a body lift allow me to
go to 32's?
Also, I would like to keep the tires relatively narrow. How hard is it to
get, say, 32 or 33-inch BFG's in a 9.5 width?
Thanks!

Re: how hard to run 32's on a TJ?
Go with the 31's and don't bother with the body lift for now, a body lift
won't get you into a 33" tire comfortably... do a suspension lift when you
get another vehicle and then go for the 33's
BFG's don't come in 9.5 on 32's, just 33's - nice choice from everything
I've heard.

Re: how hard to run 32's on a TJ?
Jeff -
I'm running 31x10.50 BFG ATs on a 97 TJ with a 2" Daystar spacer lift.
I could have easily gone with 32x12.50, but I also drive primarily on
the road, so I wanted something a little more streetable.
I think BFG discontinued the 33x9.5, but I wonder why you'd want to
run that size (width) anyway - the actual treadwidth of a 10.50 AT is
8". My tires look "skinny" on my Jeep.

Re: how hard to run 32's on a TJ?
I second that advice. Skip the body lift and run 31"s for now. Put in
a suspension lift when you are ready for 33" tires. Regards,
