Hey people, slightly off the topic. Can you run 33’s on stock wheels - 15x8?

And in line with this discussion - what is it like with 33’s with 3.75 gearing?

Thank you
 
15 x 7 that was meant to say!
EDIT: I missed that you were generally asking about 33’s. So, what follows is a corrected response @SPECHA .
You can run a 33x10.5. You can’t run a 33x12.5, and either way the gearing would suck till you got it regeared.

I have 33's w/ 3.73 gearing (for now). It's not hateful, but not great. Every once in a while I shift into 5th just to make sure it's still there, but it never gets used. I have a set of 4.88s sitting on a shelf that I'm really looking forward to installing.

Also note that my perspective comes from driving a Tj that never goes on the highway and has little reason to break 50mph, so taller gears just don't do me any favors.
