QUESTION: With a Rough Country 2" Lift/Level, can I fit anything bigger than 235/55/18 on my Latitude? I think 28.5" is safe height for no rubbing in a non-lifted... BUT the 2" if lift doesn't mean I can squeeze that much more in there, correct?

235/65/18 is 30" on the dot. Would that definitely be too big? Anyone have a list?

i just got a set of 225/75r16 tires (29.29" tall) and that is about as big as i could see going. i have about 3/16" of clearance at the 7/8's steering lock with the pinch seam folded over and a screw holding the fender liner as close as possible to the sheet metal. that is with 1" spacers and no lift. if flexed out, it looks like it will rub the fender liner a bit higher up though. the lift kit wont help with tire clearance much because of how the rear of the front wheel well is pretty much vertical.

Hey!! Awesome, thank you for all that! Seemed like 28.5" was the absolute safest and teetering on 29" was the danger zone just from what people had in their photos. I did read about a little about the wheel well and how anything short of a major lift isnt going to help. Which is lame haha considered 30mm spacers but I know next to absolutely NOTHING about spacers/offsets and still edumacating myself on them. Appreciate you taking the time to share your setup! 💪💪💪💪

I just put 235/60 on with new km708 17 x 7.5. So far no rubbing whatsoever. I am worried when i actually load it up with camping gear that the fender to tire clearance will be almost nonexistent. It does look nice though dontcha think?

2018 Upland Edition..it's a Sport with some TH goodies (TH Light). But still a Sport driveline and suspension.

No spacers, no lift. Stock vehicle.

225/65/17..they fit and no rub...despite what Monroe, Firestone et al said.

What a PITA to find someone to put them on. Turns out the dealership I bought it at did it when I got an oil change.

Looking good now..

Yeah we all know that feeling of being so-so. (y)

However when a person feels so-so and can go out, take pictures of their Jeep and post them without introducing themselves makes the forum members ignore posts like yours and in return post a direct personal reply that the OP ie you, generally take offense at.

Introduce yourself and be happy within the forum. I for one love the mods you have and think you may have more to contribute. :unsure::whistle:
