New shoes! 37s on my Mojave

[antwon412]

Tires: Nitto Recon Grappler 37x11.5r17
Wheels: Method 701s
Suspension: AEV Mojave specific 2.5” spacer lift

Had 35s before this. (Now for sale!) These feel and look way bigger.

So those are the recon grapplers?

 

[antwon412]

Correct. Edited my post. Forget to specify that.


Haven’t had a chance to really use them yet. Going on a little trip with my brother-in-law and his kids and my son in two weeks so I’ll get a feel for them while we’re out there.

Nice. I’m digging the size.

Looking Good, Did you measure the real on road height of these installed. BTW.. where did you get the stripe/band for the bed?

Good morning, I measured them at both 37 psi and also again at roughly 30 psi and got the same results. Pretty much dead on 35 1/2”

My previous 35s were actually 33 3/8”so I did actually gain two additional inches


The bed stripe was from a Forum sponsor or member here, pixie decals? Maybe pixel decals. Great quality work. I also have a matching hood decal.

It really helps break up the large expenses of blue paint in my opinion. I’m a big big fan of some black bits on a vehicle.

came out in the 35+ range.. I have 34" 35s .. with this when it's time for new treads I have real data..

Nice wheels and tires combo!

Are you running 4.10 gears? If so do you get 8th gear?

Congrats, look great!
I just switched from 35s to 37s this past weekend. Both are Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws. Huge difference now that they're on. Ride great too. Sold my 35s last weekend too!

It was a good weekend for sure

Looks good but that's around the BFG KO2 mark for height on a 37. Theirs are 35.5 as well. I wonder if it's a better tire than the BFGs are. I've never been a fan of Nittos because of the weight of the tires and how loud they get about half way through the wear process. Never ran the 11.5 though.

Interested in gearing aswell?

Well, the BFG is usually a 35 1/2 when it’s unmounted. These are that height, when mounted with the full weight of the jeep on them, and it only 30 psi.

I had them with 4.10 gears for about two days. Honestly, it felt fine.
Just got them back and went on my first four wheeling trip with new 5.13 gears. A lot better. The engine definitely stays in in the power band better.

But I would not hesitate to run these on 4.10 gears for a long time
