Will the 315x35's still fit on the rear? The Pirellis look abit skinny for Beast.
Also, will the 275x 40's fit on the front?

Well the stock 295/45/20 measures to a 30.45" tall.

The 315/35/20 measures to a 28.68" tall tire.
The 275/40/20 measures to a 28.66" tall tire.

That's a differences of about 1.79" to 1.77", that's quite a bit from the stock tires.

So putting 315's on a 2012 Jeep will lower it almost 2 inches? Might be a good alternative to lowering springs.

I dunno man. The truck itself will sit lower but the wheel well openings will still be there plus the ride might get very uncomfortable with the skinny rubber. Like mlarco52 says, the difference between stock is quite big!

5000HD. Boy has Schleprock been in your ass.

It will lower it .9 inches roughly, and his comment was directed at Kokanee not 5000HD.

I also think it will look goofy as there will be way too much wheel well space, peoples best bet will be to wait for a proper kit which eibach is already in the process of making and releasing soon apparently.

even tho they aren't meaty i kinda like how my 275/45's look on the WK2... looks like the size that should have been on it from the factory
