Jeep’s smallest model is going big.

The two-door 2024 Jeep Wrangler is now being offered with an Xtreme 35 Tire Package that includes 35-inch rubber from the factory.

Jeep has been offering the option on the four-door Wrangler since 2021, but this is the first time it’s available for the two-door model.

The package includes a 1.5-inch suspension lift with special shocks, 17×8-inch beadlock capable wheels, BF Goodrich KO2 all-terrain tires size LT315/70R17C, a 4.56:1 axle and a swing gate reinforcement to handle the added weight of the jumbo wheel and tire package.

The setup gives the Wrangler a best-in-class breakover angle of 32.4 degrees, owing in part to its shorter wheelbase compared to the two-door Ford Bronco, which is available with a Sasquatch package that includes 35-inch tires.

With the Xtreme 35 package, the Jeep’s approach and departure angles are 47.2 degrees and 32.4 degrees, while its ground clearance is 12.6 inches. It’s also rated to ford water up to 34 inches deep.

The package is priced at $4,495, but will be included on a Rubicon X trim powered by the Wrangler’s 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that starts at $64,190.

The order book for Wrangler Rubicons and Wrangler Willys with the package will open soon. It is fully covered by the Wrangler’s warranty.

The package and 35-inch tires remain available on the updated 2024 four-door Wrangler Willys and Rubicon and are standard equipment on the V8-powered Rubicon 392.
