I have a 2002 wrangler and added a 2" lift (springs & shocks only) I
currently have the factory wheels and tires, but it is time for new tires
and I want to go up in size. What is the largest size tire (looking at BF
Goodrich AT or GY MTR) that I can put on the factory wheels? Also I have a
friend who would be willing to sell me some ION 15x8 wheels, what is the
largest size that I could add to these wheels? I also need to keep in mind
that this is my everyday transportation and I don't off-road as much as I
used to with my older CJ. Thanks for any help provided!

 

Most are happier with 3.5" back spacing rather than the stock 5.5".
I'm happy with BF Goodrich AT KO ll.50 32" for the street.

The backspacing on factory wheels will limit you pretty much to a
10.5" wide tire at most. Personally, in that configuration, I'd run a
31x10.5 or maybe a 32x10.5 (do they make such an animal?). I'm lifted
~2" and run 31x10.5.
