I like the way you two think , I've done the same with my past 4 jeeps. Plus in the past i've only had to use lockers front and back a hand full of times , I only need one. Onboard air is nice and upgrade the lights... build it light and you'll gor far .
Thanks a bunch. I am looking to upgrade to 33 and the wheels I looked at had a -12 offset. With the stock wheel at +44 I thought that was to radical. After looking at yours I'll go with +12 to +18. Glad I watched. Be well stay safe.
hey Kyle / Heather.... OMG i love what you did and I'm in the middle of shopping myself. I'm picking up a brand new Sahara on Friday, but the stock wheels and tires kill me - they need to go ASAP... the stock wheels on the 2021 are 18".. so you got the KMC 717' w/+18 offset (copy that) that's what i've been trying to figure out the 'combination of the right all black rim with 33' tire"
FYI - Just picked up factory ordered ”basic” 2021 Rubicon 2Dr with AT, HT, LED & tow pkgs for $41K. Considered a basic model with upgrades like this couple. Instead chose a “basic” Rubicon because most upgrade items I wanted come standard on it. For example - nicer wheels, BFG 33’s, rock sliders, 7” infotainment, nicer interior plus all that extra “hardware” underneath. Either way, if you are serious about buying a new Jeep look at Tread Lightly program, for sure! Going with a 2 door matched our planned usage and that saved us even more ✌️
I really want to go 2.5 inch lift and 37s but I know the small front axle can’t handle it. Kinda wish I had done what you did, but didn’t want to wait 12 weeks for a custom order. No 4 door rubicon’s on the lot for under 50k.
Not interested in 37’s though I find myself wishing I’d traded the 33’s in for 35’s. They fit on a stock Rubi and a small lift is on my list. Only addition so far has been a RockHard4x4 aluminum bumper for flat towing behind our motorhome and the “mandatory” Warn 10S winch. Plan to use it more off road than on. You are right, it took exactly 12 weeks from placing the order till delivery. However, that is almost certainly a few weeks less now. As an ordered model, we got it equipped (not equipped really) exactly as we wanted, including the color. Finding one without all the on-road extras would not have been possible without ordering. Plus a discounted below invoice price is easily obtainable on those, and that definitely made the wait worth it. Btw - that new car smell is especially intense for ordered Jeeps. Happy wheeling 🙂
Running a similar set up on our Sahara. I have the wild peaks and love them, unfortunately they are the heavier C load rated tire. Got a deal I couldn’t pass up on a practically brand new set of 5 off a gladiator. I also am running a -12 offset rim and it doesn’t look like it pokes out much more then yours. We love the look
-12 to +18 is 1 1/4" difference, so there should be a big difference in appearance. I'm looking to change the stock 255/75-17 with the +44 offset, to 295/70-17 with +1 offset. I don't have much of a choice with the Fuel Vapor wheels, where the most positive offset is +1mm.. I even drew the wheel combo's up on CAD, which shows the edge of the thread 1 1/4 inch beyond the fender, and the sidewall with just over a 2 inches protrusion.
You will still need a programmer like a tazer to set your tire size so your automatic transmission would fix its shift points its not 100% necessary but it adds a couple of miles to your gallon.
Nice. We have a Jeep JLU WILLYS 2022. Wanted a small upgrade. For those including myself watching your video review for 33s is what I was looking for. It’s my wife’s dream vehicle since. Oh by the way did you lift your ride as well? If so what type of lift and any changes since? Again great video.
Check out AEV's 2.5″ DUALSPORT RT SUSPENSION for the JL, if you haven't already lifted your Jeep. I have this lift for my '18 JKU Rubicon and it works and looks great with 33" tires.
Just picked up the 2021 Wrangler Willys edition. I love it. I’m going with 33s but wanted to ask if the 33 inch fit okay on the back tire carrier? Awesome looking Jeep by the way!
Great video and even better info for a newbie. I recently jumped on a sport altitude, it comes with aluminum 18 wheels that I really like, what tire measure Would you recommend? I am thinking something pretty much like your setup slightly offset 33’s but with the 18 wheels.
The JL looks great! What made you go with Falken and not staying with the Bfg’s? Also, did you have to trim the rock sliders? I recently got some & they don’t look like they’ll fit without adjustments
Hi. My name is Edgar and I'm from Pa. My question is, Did you buy a spear tire as well and if so, how it works with the bumper? Thank you in advance. Blessings 🙏
Thank you for this video! been looking to upgrade to 33s on my JLU Sport. Just a question, what benefit do you get from getting new wheels...as opposed to staying with the stock? And have you found any rubbing since you have had them?
Mostly just looks better, the wider stance is the look I wanted, but it does also help a little bit with cornering stability, no rubbing with our setup!
Haha bro, im one of those peeps that just yeeted 33s on my very stock rubi recon without knowing pretty much what i was doing, besides rubbing on tight turns, I dont feel anything off. I got the same tires as you! Falken wildpeaks! But mine are 275/70/18. What do you think? Should I modify something or should I avoid riding these???
Hi I just got my 2020 jeep wrangler unlimited sport , where did you purchase your wheel and tires combo and where did you have it installed? I live in alexandria VA by the way. I also dont want my jeep to be lifted. Please advice Thank you!
Best solution is to move out of California and get some good ole American freedom back in your life, but to answer your question you would need an offset around +30 to stay inside the fender
I have stock 18 inch ×7.5 inch wheels with 255/70r18 on Jeep Unlimited Sahra--no lift. I want to keep these rims. What size and offset would I get to approximate your look? Thanks
The JL’s are actually designed with upgraded suspensions that can fit 33 inch tires without a lift. I’m actually putting 18 inch rims with a negative offset with 33 inch tires on my JL. I changed out the factory fenders to get the clearance I wanted.
@@peterfranzjr.1190 unfortunately I didn’t have a good answer for you on that one :( never got to fully flex it before Heather took it to FL for her USAF training
Sure! The website I bought them from was www.customwheeloffset.com/ and if you email me at campbellzr2@gmail.com I can send you a screenshot of all the wheel and tire details
@@campbelloffroad3660 Hi guys, Jeep looks great - y'all have good taste! This is the exact look I am going for but have been struggling searching for myself through thousands of forums (with little knowledge of this stuff). Would you mind sending me the details of the tires/rims you got too? I'd greatly appreciate the help. Did you end up getting a lift kit for it? I'm thinking 1-1.5 would be plenty for this combo.
My friend asked me if I was going to go crawling in my Jeep Wrangler JL Sport S. I answer “not as long as I’m making payments.”

It’s cool you guys share the same passion for the Jeep. Makes for fun times .
Love this. I'm going to copy your technique! Can you list the exact wheels and tires you have ?
I'm knew to the jeep family. I thank you for this very helpful video. I plan on changing the tires and didn't know where to start but, now I do.

Basic rubicon for 41k nice the four cylinders any good?
Great job doing your homework, loved the video. Keep ‘em coming.
Smart tire choice, looks AMAZING!
Looks great ! 👍👍👍👍👍 PS I’m one of your ZR2 followers 👍
Nice couple, I bought 2018 Sting Grey JLU Sport S I only have 16k miles can’t wait to change the tires to 33s
What you paid for the jeep

Looks good, just did the same thing with the rock sliders for my wife’s Jeep
Looks so good! Now all you need is a new set of tires and wheels.
Yup, some 37s will look great on there
You will still need a programmer like a tazer to set your tire size so your automatic transmission would fix its shift points its not 100% necessary but it adds a couple of miles to your gallon.
What is this youre talking about dude? Highly interested....

Jeep looks amazing. Just bought a sport as well. Any regrets not going with the LT tire?
Just picked up the 2021 Wrangler Willys edition. I love it. I’m going with 33s but wanted to ask if the 33 inch fit okay on the back tire carrier? Awesome looking Jeep by the way!
It fit perfect! Any bigger and it would have hit the rear bumper
Hi, thank you so much for this! I found the tires but which option exactly did you choose? There’s so many different versions
I might have missed it, are those 285/70/17? Look great!
Yes they are!
I was just about to ask that.
Wheels & tires look really good on your Jeep. Can you share the exact size/brand of tires you got and do you happen to have a link?? Thanks!!!
Nice set up. I’m wondering if I should look at any different numbers or offset if I wanted 18 inch rims with 33s?
As long as the wheel is the same width you wouldnt need a different offset, 285/70r18 would be a bigger tire so keep that in mind
What’s the biggest size wheel and tire can I put in my heel wrangler sport without a lift just leaving it stock ?
Jeep lookin good. 👍
Great video and even better info for a newbie. I recently jumped on a sport altitude, it comes with aluminum 18 wheels that I really like, what tire measure Would you recommend? I am thinking something pretty much like your setup slightly offset 33’s but with the 18 wheels.
I would recommend 275/70r18, it measures (33.4x11)
The JL looks great! What made you go with Falken and not staying with the Bfg’s? Also, did you have to trim the rock sliders? I recently got some & they don’t look like they’ll fit without adjustments
Thanks! No trimming required to the rock sliders

So I have a 2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport. I'm trying to get 285/70R17 with 17x8.5 wheels. What kind of offset would I be looking at?
also, I live in CA so I can't have the tire sticking outside the fender.
Best solution is to move out of California and get some good ole American freedom back in your life, but to answer your question you would need an offset around +30 to stay inside the fender
Love your content, may you post the exact link of where you bought your tires and wheels?
I couldnt get a link to the specific combo, but I have a screenshot of it saved if you email me at campbell.jeep@gmail.com I can send it to you!
Did your jeep have the part between the fender and bumper? My wifes 19 has it and im upgrading wheels and tires and i need to know how to remove that
This looks great, do you all have any lifts or kits or spaces?
Nope, stock suspension
I have stock 18 inch ×7.5 inch wheels with 255/70r18 on Jeep Unlimited Sahra--no lift. I want to keep these rims. What size and offset would I get to approximate your look? Thanks
Looks good, Can you list the wheel size and tire size? I couldn't pick it up when watching. Thanks
17x8.5 wheels with a +18 offset, 285/70r17 tires
Lookin good guys!
Looks fantastic. What do you think of a 9 inch wide with a 0 offset?
That would definitely have a wider stance than this, but probably wouldn’t cause any issues
Sounds like you should have just gotten the rubicon, definitely not (secure) enough for a stock jl
Are you going to make a video or talk about how trade in on the zr2 went? How much did you get for the zr2, and the price of the jeep?
Wasn’t really planning to, I got 32k for the truck, paid 41k for the Jeep
Wow, make a huge difference in looks. I'd say maybe a 1 or 2" lift would look good and give a slight more clearance
The JL’s are actually designed with upgraded suspensions that can fit 33 inch tires without a lift. I’m actually putting 18 inch rims with a negative offset with 33 inch tires on my JL. I changed out the factory fenders to get the clearance I wanted.
Or just spent 600 bucks and get high top fenders that give ypu the extra 2 inch clearance
Hey guys, jeep looks great!! Which exact tire size did you get? P285/70r17?
Yup!
@@campbelloffroad3660 I'm trying to decide between 255/80R17 or 285/75R17 (Sport S, no lift, stock wheels, no wheel spacers!!)
@@peterfranzjr.1190 go 285! The 255 is too skinny, I don’t think it looks as good
When yours is fully flexed, how close to vertical rubbing are you?
@@peterfranzjr.1190 unfortunately I didn’t have a good answer for you on that one :( never got to fully flex it before Heather took it to FL for her USAF training
If i put 275/65r18 on my 2019 jl sports, do i need some modification like lift or spacers? Thank you in advance
Hi, did you re-gear when you fitted the 33s?
No, definitely not needed for 33s, only 1" taller than stock.
With the heavier tires, does the wrangler struggle to use 8th gear on the highway?
No it still sits in 8th gear most of the time, just goes to 7th to climb hills
@@campbelloffroad3660 at what speeds?
@@erickdiaz6152 65-70, it doesn’t do as well above 75
How much did your MPG change? In city and on highway?
Did you use a new spare tire carrier?
Hi, did you re-gear the gears when you got the 33s?
Not necessary. I’m on 35s stock gearing and about to go 37s on a JL sport.
Can you send a link with the tires and rims you bought. Looking for same look without lift and taking away from the ride

Can the spare tire holder support the weight of the 33s?
Yes, it is only a few pounds heavier than the stock tire
Did you have any rubbing issues whatsoever?
None at all
There is only 5lb difference between 35 and 33 tire.
how much did you spend in total i love this set up
The 5 wheels and tires shipped mounted and balanced to our door for $2120
