I have an 03 Sahara with the stock 15" aluminum wheels, I have installed a 2" suspension lift (I'm in Florida lets be honest we don't have any big rocks) what size tires can I get on my stock rims anyone have any experience with something similar?
 
With a 2" lift you could fit 33" tires on there, but it will be tight. 31" or 32" will be your ideal size.

31x10.50 would be a perfect fit with 2" of lift. You may get slight rubbing at full lock but it is easy to adjust by adding a washer or two behind the steering stop.

thats what i was thinking how wide do you think i could get away with before rubbing issues

On the stock wheels, you could run 10.5" wide, maybe 11".

Anything more than that and you're going to need aftermarket wheels with a different offset, or wheel spacers.

X2. This is a great size that looks perfect on 2" of lift.

Hi I am in Florida also 2 inch lift ,31/10.50
 
You can easily get 31 x 10.5. I did on stock with no rubbing and no washers.

And I know Duratracs @Chris, are the best tires on the planet, but anyone have an opinion on Federal Couragia M/T's?
