It's funny, I'm constantly telling myself that I want 37s but then I see all the pics of the trucks here on 35s and they look awesome. To do 37s correctly it takes a good chunk money and for what? If I can't get there on 35s on a gladiator should I even go there in a gladiator?
No reason to post crap like this. The op has every right to do whatever he want with his truck. One thing about this forum that I like is that people are civil most of the time.
I'd consider staying with 17" wheels myself. More sidewall and a better ride in my opinion. Clearly better on the trail when aired down. I guess it depends on what your intentions are.
After owning mine since 2021 I'd say mud flaps are an essential mod. I didn't get any and after driving on gravel fire roads my door hinges and fender flares are hammered.
