Will 17inch KK wheels fit my 04 KJ ! Trying to fit 245/75/17 inch tires without using adaptors.

You do realize that is a 32 inch tall tire , right ?
245-75-16 is an inch shorter , not much until you try to install them
and then there is the gearing issue
KKs have same bolt pattern but thinking we ran into an issue where the KKs center bore was smaller than the KJ
let me check
I know KJs will go on KKs
Going to address one thing at a time, trying to sort out wheel and tire combination, then move on to gears.
I'm not a fan of adaptors bro,but that's just personal preference but if installed correctly and from a good brand you should be fineMight as well get all my questions answered at once. Has anybody had experience with 17 inch Wrangler wheels and tires. I know it would involve adapter and spacers.
Theres a few pics out there, I have the rockfather II with 2 upper iso in the back and trim packer up front from RRO ,love that kit regardless of what you might read,company has been good to me and my jeepsWhat do you have for a lift? I just had a Frankenlift installed. Any pictures of your Jeep?
I run 255/75/17 with no noticeable power loss, anything I did lose was negligible..that includes going up and down mountains and 4wheelin weekly and daily driving...4.10 great upgrade, but you'll be fine until you regear
COMMON SENSE , you need to regear
engine runs below the RPMs it needs to run efficiently
transmission runs hotter since there is extra slippage etc
4.10s are not even low enough gears for 32s really
TJKJ2002 ( TROY ) AND I DISCUSSED THIS YEARS AGO, 32S ON THE kj REQUIRE 4.35s OR SO REALLY TO BE IN THE POWER BAND AND RUN GOOD WITHOUT ANY OTHER ISSUES ( I think that is what it worked out to)
Ask any people/ companies etc who builds 4x4s if larger tires do indeed require a regear
anyone who says otherwise ................
JK, thought ya had a KJPicked up 4 black wheels and BFG 235/75/16 tires from a 2012 KK this morning hopefully putting them on my JK tomorrow! This should finally solve my wheel/tire search once and for all !
