Hi I'm Jim I have a 2012 kk. I'm currently looking at getting new rims and tires. What is the biggest rim size I can go? I'm thinking 18's or 20's with a lower profile tires. Any help, thanks

What are you planning to do with the jeep? Street only? Off road? Rock crawling? Will you be lifting at all? This will determine tire type and size. Std wheel size is 16x7, and this is best for all around and off road use. Limited and latitude models came with 18x7 and a P235/60 tire which is more street oriented, and there is very limited selection of A/T tires available. Jet models came with 20x7 and a P245 low profile tire, which is street only.

I lifted a bit and run 255/60R18 A/T's on stock 18x7 wheels. Perfect for my type of driving, but YMMV.

Thank you for the input. The Libby is probably going to be street only. Only " off-roading" will be dirt roads lol
