Currently on 33X10.5 on stock rims.
After much measuring, calculating, drawing diagrams, considering my build and use, I "think" I have concluded that is a good tire size for me.
I do get some rubbing at full lock on the LCA, Coils and stock front skid so I want to reduce the back set a bit.
This XJ is in decent shape, but it's not winning any beauty contests for sure.
I think my options are:
- Buy new wheels with 4" backset
- Add 1-1/4" spacers
I assume wheels will cost more and spacers bring some new concerns?
Comments? Experiences?
PS: Would really like to step up to 35's, but have concluded it is mostly for the "cool factor". Plus 35's would require new wheels and less than 4" backset to improve my rubbing issues.
