How's it going JL wrangler community,

I'm in the market for new wheels for my JLU Rubicon. I'm wanting to run 37x12.5xR17 Cooper STT Pros with a Dynatrac 2" lift. I want a untuck look, but not too untucked to where it looks super aggressive. Your suggestions and advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Welcome to the community Craftjeep!

That's a great stance for these vehicles! A few options to make it happen, running a 17x8.5 with 0 offset would put the lip of the new wheel 2 1/4" farther out than it is now. Other choice depending on the wheel brands you like would be a 17x9 with a +12 offset, this would put the lip of the new wheel about 2" farther out than the stock one.

You could measure with a tape measure from your stock wheels to get a visual, then decide if you want to go more aggressive or dial it back a little.

What do you recommend for the most tucked in look. I have a lift as well. Done with spacers.
