Wheel and tires came as a package with lift kit and side steps, via my original purchase and finance through my dealer. $3,200 + $1,200 labor.
To get these wheels and tires, order as a package from JSport, or purchase separately online such as Tirerack.com and/or Discounttire.com. Do not rush your decision and get outside advice if you aren't sure. 🧐

For those on the fence know this:
There is a lot of good info scattered around this site and
Youtube. Get good at sleuthing. As for my setup, I love the way it rides on pavement and over bumps, and am pleased with the lack of road noise. I have 8" of ground clearance to the front control arms and almost 9" to the rear and that seems adequate for forest service roads. Will update after my first adventure.
For those in the midst of their research - I purchased this setup before I understood how to accommodate a larger Nitto Grappler, such as 265/60/R18 which I was told rubbed. But depending on the tire brand, the actual tire dimensions when mounted and fully loaded can vary. There have been owners going with a larger spec'd diameter and don't hear rubbing - but if their tire actually measures 265 mm width and 60% sidewall ratio as spec'd, it should rub at least at full lock.
I am okay not taking that risk and going with the 30" Nitto, which has a reputation for tires measuring true to size.
Assuming your wheel Offset dim is close to or less than OEM 34mm:
I don't believe that 265/60/R18 by BF Goodrich or Cooper will rub.
The 265/60/R18 Falken Wildpeak does rub at full lock.
The 265/60/R18 Nitto Grapplers will rub during any turning. (someone can verify this...)
JonDZ has commented on his Youtube tire height
video that he has 99.9% certainty that a 255/65/R18 won't rub (Falken or Goodyear). Would love to see someone mount these and confirm. Your reward will be a 31" tire!🙌😛
OK, that's it.😅
