For reference there is a post here about installing 38 inch tires and having to move body mount over 5 inches to clear so only being 3 inches more then 35s do the math body mount in the way when turning sure it will fit driving straight and some minor turning bit anything sharp it's gonna hit tire or any suspension flex it's gonna hit fenders also it's reliability off-road is almost nil with 35s and stock front diff it's to weak even with my 33x14s I was breaking stuff up front under heavy 4 wheeling

When I bought my jeep it had 35s and for a little TJ I found it track way to much now I got 32s and drives great no tracking lost a bit of axle clearance off-road but only an inch or so no biggy
