What is the widest 33" tire I can fit under my 2000 tj with my standard 2" pro comp lift and 15x 8 rims?

if you have 3.5" backspacing from the 15x8's, you can run 13.5's and maybe even 14.5 with a little control arm rubing.

hey, If you install some lockers and super kits in your axles, you'll have that rubi!
realisticly the front D44 has only a stronger ring gear than the d30. it uses the same tubes and axles.

nothin wrong with dreaming!

Do lockers keep both wheels with full power instead of being part time? Thats something I need to know more about. Also have you heard anyone putting a stage 2 chip in a 2.5L

yep, they make both sides turn together instead of only on wheel spinning....
not specifically a stage 2 but yes I've driven the 2.5's that hav had jet chips in them, IDK how much difference from stock they make, with proper gearing you can make the 2.5 perform pretty good with 33's.'

If you are using your jeep on the street, Check out the detroit Trutrac lockers. They are a limited slip type. I have them front & rear, and don't even notice them during hwy operation. Off Road performace has been flawless.
