Lets see all those Gladiators with lifts and bigger tires!

Mopar lift, Fox 2.5 shocks, 37” KO2’s Venomrex wheels

What lengths are your 2.5" Fox shocks? Are they the ones advertised for a 2-3 or a 3.5-4.5" lift?

3.5-4.5 lift, I have 5in up travel and 5in down, with Mopar springs which is more like 3in total lift. If you get the 2-3in lift shocks you loose some down travel, look up the shock length specs and you will see. But do remember if you wheel it hard you might have driveshaft issues on the exhaust because shock shaft lengths longer than 30-31in might make it hit at full flex.

I only rub at full artiticulation and wheel turn. Mine are 13.50’s too so extra wide.

Did you have to add wheel spacers? I'm purchasing a -44 set of wheels and picking up the 37s this weekend.

- offset pushes the wheel out giving you poke.... it's the back spacing that would determine if you need spacers. I have -18 and poke out about an inch, you can expect a lot more more with -44. Here is a pic with 4.04" backspacing and -18 offset.

That's a 9.5 wide rim?

8.5

8.5

Does not compute. 8.5' wide, -18 offset, The BS would be 4". You would need an offset of -6 for a 4.5" BS.

Yeah.... sorry typo, it's Technically 4.04

On that topic, I found several wheels listed online when I was shopping for mine, where the math simply didn't compute. Seems copy/paste is particularly rampant in that industry.

Not that it applies here specifically, but when in doubt double check

Here’s Black Rhino Armory 17x9.5 4.5 backspace -18 offset with 37x13.50 17 STT Pro.

Here’s the same wheel with Falken Wildpeak AT3W 37x12.5x17. I’m waiting for my order of Black Rhino Arsenal 17x8 5.68bs +30mm offset as I don’t like the look of the AT poking out that far. I’ll post a similar picture when I get the tires swapped to the new wheels.
