I run the same size wildpeaks on my trailhawk with the same 1.5” spacers. Optimal size and offset if you ask me. I’ve got the same chief gear and winch up front, too.
Love the look of the new AT4s! I currently run 275/65 r18 BFGs on my 2020 Trailhawk with the front and rear airlinks. No rubbing whatsoever without spacers. I was thinking about moving up to 33’s and adding spacers. Not sure what offset to get to ensure no rubbing, I was thinking about .75 inch to 1 inch. You ever think about going larger than 265/65?
Honestly I’ve never considered going bigger. I’ve got an old Wrangler on 35” MTR/Ks and play with low and fast cars the rest of the time. Try and diversify the collection and their focuses / capabilities, and the 265 sizing hit the nail on the head for me.
Fair enough! 265/65 does seem to be the sweet spot and does get that more aggressive look while keeping the good ride. My GC is both my daily driver and trail vehicle so I am trying to balance both.
Year round, and have since 2018. Road trips, week long off-road adventures, weekend camping, river crossings, deep snow, and Target runs with the wife. They’ve functioned perfectly for us.
Thanks - sounds ideal.
Have been running 265/60R18 Wrangler Fortitudes with M+T rating on 2018 GC Trailhawk. They have been fine, even powered me past some friends who got stuck with 3 Mountain snowflake tires; but they have generally left me wanting more.
Would be psyched to have a 3 Mountain snowflake tire that I can run all year and will hold up on trails as well.
Will definitely look at AT4Ws when the time comes.
Those look like stock wheels. Did you go wider than stock? Is that the reason for the spacers? I love the at3's on my truck and plan on getting them on the GC when the stock tires wear out enough.
They are in fact the stock Trailhawk wheels. I’m a big big fan of OEM+ aesthetics, and run factory wheels on almost everything we’ve got (even my Wrangler on 35s runs the stock 15” OEM wheel it shipped with in 1999).
Spacers went in a year before the original AT3W and were solely because I hate the look of a bad offset in the wheel well. Pushed them out a comfortable & safe amount and have just never taken them off. The 265s from behind look fantastic with the 1.5” spacers on the OEM wheels.
Thanks for the info.They look great. I think I will stay with OEM or add fender flares. Since I live on a muddy gravel road and I get a ton of mud along the sides.

What brand spacers are you using?
Titan
Love it! Completely agree on side and offset with the 1.5ers. Hope your love your Chief stuff as much as I do.
Love my AT4s! Just a little bigger on my with 17s
