Rough Country recommends 32" x 11.5" tires with their 4.5" kit that way the tires will not rub no matter how you articulate jeep. I'm lookin at getting 5 KM2's 33" x 12.5 R15 on 15 x 10 wheels.1. Does anyone run 33's on a 4.5" kit did you have to trim flares/wells or do tires rub on anything in tight situations? Curious gettin ready for tax money and syked bout finally gettin some new rubbers.

 

i got the rc 4.5 as well im running 32s..

 

Geez, I have a budget 3" and run 33's. Keep the CG low it don't need to be sky high.

 

Im on 33s with 4" (actual), and still wish I went with 35s...So if you get my drift you know what to pick.

With 7" LA now i'm goin 37s...

 

A buddy of mine just put a 4.5" RC lift under his, with 33x12.50's on 15x8 Soft 8's with 4" backspacing, plenty of room and no rub'age.

 

Thanks for lookin out guys will be gettin tires late february 33's will post pics.

 

Did he cut the fenders at all?

 

I have the 4.5 lift with full packs.

I originally had 32's. They were great. I could stuff them as hard as I wanted front and rear and never had any rubbing with no sway bars with no trimming or modifications.

I just got a set of 33's. This opened a whole new can of worms. I didn't have rubbing that bad. I could only turn the wheels about 60% before the rubbed the back of the fender. this weekend i tore out the liners and took of the fender flares. I trimmed the rear of the fender about an inch and now i have no issues with turning and I will trim the front fenders a little to get it looking smooth.

 

I have the RC 4.5 with 32" BFG muds...love it! Ill try to find a pic of it really fast for you.
