    Anyone with the atp 4" or 2" with eibach's have any recommendations on tire size w/o any rubbing. Would like to stick with 17" stock wheels. I'll consider doing pinch seam mod, but want to make sure there is no rubbing elsewhere.

    that would depend on if you do wheel spacers or not, I have the ATP 2" spacer lift with the Eibach springs and 2" wheel spacers.
    I didn't go too crazy with tires, just a 235/65R17 Atturo Trailblade X/T
    but even with that I had to do the pinch seam mod to stop the rubbing.

    I don't have any specific pictures of them going in or the pinch seam because the garage I got them done in wouldn't let me take any pictures.
    and these are about a year old but it shows the definite height difference along with the offset of the wheel spacers.
    These were taken right after I got my tires

    on the rear you'll be perfectly fine, no issues there. But you'll more then likely have to do the pinch seam mod on the front, those tires would be at least 1/2 inch wider and taller then mine and I had to have my pinch seam cut a lot to make them work.
    And another issue you might come across, nobody really talks about it, but if you have the factory fog lights, you might run into some rubbing on the fog light housing as well, I know I did. It shouldn't be much though.

    caught myself looking at tires today and found some that not only would work great for trails and mudding but they are rather ironic as well since I have a Desert Hawk Renegade. The only downfall is I would also have to get 16" wheels

    by all acounts with my current setup, 2" ATP spacers, Eibach springs and 2" wheel spacers and the pinch seam mod, I did some measurements and I should be fine. Now all I need is the money lol

    With the 4 inch lift and 1.5 inch spacers, pinch weld AND the fender liner modification, 30" will fit without rubbing.
    My 4" lift is the AVID 2.5 and the ATP Springs (I wanted the red springs).

    My next set of tires will be the BFG KO2, 245/65R17 (29.5") on stock Renegade 17's.

    BFG KO2 225/65R17 pictured
