Thinking about getting 305/75/16s when the tires I have now wear out. From all my figuring that's about a 34x12x16. Can I run this stock with wheel spacers and trimmed fenders without issues?
 
305/70r16 will turn out to be about 33/12. Should fit on stock height. You will need about 4.5 inches of backspace to avoid rubbing

Edit: Thinking now, I don't know that they make 305/75r16. 305/70r16 = 33x12
 
So I should be good with em as long as I get wheel spacers, or should I just go with new wheels as well?
 
Yeah they should fit with spacers, but I would ditch the stock steelies if you can afford to. Of course that's just personal preference, if you like them then you should keep them.

If you plan on ditching em you should just go up to a 17" wheel will be better in the long run more tire choices and more common size if something where to happen out on a trail and u didn't have a spare…
just my .02

At stock height the 305/70/16 will rub the rear fenders when stuffed or if you hit a big bump/dip in the road at speed.
This is with 4.5" backspaced wheels too;)

This is what I am running right now:D
 
Nope

Gonna do something with them , just not sure what yet.
Since its a Sahara, I am kinda unsure on cutting on them as they are painted.
 
There are a couple guys on here who ran 35's with flat fenders and no lift. I think Frank was set up like that for a little bit when he first got his Rubicon.
