255s are pretty nice, and they are the closest thing to a 33x9.5 you can get. Always loved that size because you can use stock wheels.

The tires on those AEV Pintler wheels are 255/80/17's and I ran them on my 09 Rubicon a couple weeks before I installed the AEV 2.5 in lift without any issues.  But, that particular tire size, even though it's a 33, is pretty narrow and I'm not sure you could run a wider tire like a 33/12.50 without it possibly rubbing a little though.

so I am hearing that a 285/70r/17 on a 17x9 5-5/5.5 wheel will work on a stock '2015 wrangler.  Thoughts?

There's a Wrangler code of ethics. You have to wave to each other. It's sort of a law. A code of conduct.

It's funny, way back when I had my first CJ5 nobody did that, all jeeps wave stuff.  Then years later when I bought my first Wrangler everyone was doing the wave but I've always been a hold out and kinda thought it was stupid so I was an anti-waver.  In my younger years I had sport bikes and then Harley's as I got older, I was an anti-waver then too.  To each his own, but the whole wave thing just seemed silly to me.

Same here....although nobody waves at me in my Jeep. I think Grand Cherokees are pardoned from the wave rule.

That's the PIR part, too darn many on the road. Always thought it was kind cool that specific vehicle groups did a wave (FJ40, Enduros, etc.  even bus drivers do it) but kind of an annoyance when every 5th vehicle on the road is a Jeep. IMO

With that being said, I try to do it....just so folks don't think I'm an arse........they just don't know me well enough to know that I am.

Good choice and the wheels and tire size.  Any other mods in the works?  I am looking at a backup camera, bumpers, and radio head unit.

Rock Rails, I would not do any serious off roading without a good set of Rock Rails or Sliders.

I had the Rock Crawler lift installed on mine.  Epic Customs in Tacoma did the work.

Needed something a little smaller than my crew/long box Chevy. Time to go tire/wheel shopping now.

Nice and nice color!
