I’m looking to change out to a new wheel and tire and curious if i could get some info and opinions so I can make the right choice the first time. Some info on the Jeep. 03 Rubicon with 3” lift. My wife and I will not be driving the jeep daily but it will be driven a few times a week around town and 40 so miles few times a month at highway speeds. We do intend on taking trips to off road parks and trail riding in the Jeep but no crazy rock crawling or stuff like that. May drive it a few hours to local parks but hope to be able to trailer it to further ones out. Our main goal is to have a trail worthy jeep that can be driven locally too. So my questions.
1. Should I stay with the 16” wheel size that came on the rubi or go with the 15”? Also 15x8, x10? Pros and cons of either?
2. I’m leaning toward getting the cooper discoverer STT pro, 32x11.50x15 or the 16” equivalent with 3.75- 4” backspace. Currently have the stock rubi flares. Looking to get the tire out just beyond the flare maybe 1/2 inch or 1”.
Any thoughts or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
