Default 4" lift what size of tires will fit?

Hi new to this site. I have a 2000 TJ with a 4" suspension lift and was wondering if anyone has been able to run 35s.
Any input would be appreciated

35x12.5r20 ?? Are you sure of the last number?? 35x12.5r15 will fit without any rubbering on offset rims of min 8".also extend you bump stops or put longer ones on... as on stock rims you will rub...you will need wider flares to cover them. Most of the problems are when your offroading and have disconnected your front end and the wheel goes up into the fender well.

also depends on tire mfg's spec for tire and rim width....10" rims will usually drop the tire height by 1" to 1 1/2 too...but ------ out the footprint
