Looking for some ideas on more aggressive off road type tires on the stock 20" Sahara rims. Maybe oversized ones without a lift? Not sure how big you can go without a lift or leveling kit.

Could we get a before/after?
I only have one before shot (angle isn't identical):
This shot shows another 4xe Sahara next to ours at the dealer:
Hope that helps!
Nope..
I've upgraded to Falken Wildpeaks 275/60R20

How's the highway ride and wet traction on those Wildpeaks with the stock setup compared to the stock tires? Looks fantastic! I'm set on the 275/60r20 size but not sure if I want H/T or A/T tires yet
I’m here in Vegas , So I have no idea about their wet traction. On road manners and handling I think are great. I push them a little on the highway ramps and find them to be very predictable.
I had a 2010 GLK and the transmission went at 25000 miles. The dealer blamed the new rims and tires I put on. He said the 4matic should have been reprogrammed. That was the only car I ever bought non-stock tires for but now I’m considering it for my Jeep. These pictures are rad and I want to reduce the likelihood of scratching the rims. Does changing the radius of the tire affect the computer - transmission/4wd synergy long term?

Increasing your tires a small amount up to maybe 35" shouldn't do anything harmful to the drivetrain. I doubt 37's would add much more wear and tear. Wranglers are made to run bigger tires from the factory, so the rig can handle it. Your 4xe has some pretty heavy duty parts to cope with the extra weight and power of the 4xe system as well. If you have a Sahara with 3.73 or a Rubicon with 4.11's all the better. The only thing I would do is get JScan or a Taser to let the computer know you have bigger tires.

This looks so good! Any loss in electric only range?

That's exactly what I want to do. Wife is not on board as yet. Just as well, the Duster 340 needs new shoes this year.

Do you have any more photos of this? Do the 12.5 wide tires stick outside of the fenders?

Same. Could you tell me if you need a 2'in lift on the Rubicon to accommodate the tires with rims?

Did the lift settle a bit? And how is your rear carrier holding up with the added weight so far? I’m planning on doing a very similar setup. Either the Mopar lift or the AEV 2” Spacer lift with 35s on the stock wheel. Love the look. And last time I went off roading I needed a bit more clearance but everything else was fantastic with the Sahara 4XE

I have the same color 2024 Sahara 4xe. That looks bad ass! I'm doing it too.
