I went with 35's at 1 day old just because I had leftovers from the JK sitting at the house.
I knew I wanted 37's before I bought it. JT's just look right with 37's. My biased opinion.
Weight matters. A couple of the lightest 37" tires out there are BFG AT's and Mastercraft Courser MXT. They are...
No rubbing, but could use a little more room in the rear with the factory fender liners still intact. If someone made a 1.5 rear spacer instead of the .75 I have, it would be better.
No wheel spacers, they are Quadratec Rubicon Extreme wheels 17x9 with 4.75 BS.

Mine does ok. I see 8th on the flats without a head wind! The Rubi 4:1 transfer case helps a ton off road. On steep PNW trail descents, I still don't have to touch the brakes and I up shift to 2nd often. Not the case with my non-Rubi TJ on 35's. I had to re-gear. It was horrible.

Lockers will get you in trouble on the road in the snow. The only time they will help you is if you need help getting out of the ditch that you slid into. They also can help, at times, on mountain snow runs atop many feet of snow. Locked axles on side hills can make you slide towards the down...
I did once on my previous TJ Wrangler many years ago. Owned a house with a carport instead of a garage. The neighbor's friggin cat sprayed my seats. Nothing worse than cat pee. Took forever to get rid of the smell after hours of scrubbing and many treatments. "That's what cats do", she said. I...
I enjoy the sounds of nature. I enjoy music also. I've installed a subwoofer in our motorhome. I like the sounds of people having a good time. I'd rather hear neighbors music than them yelling at each other and/or their kids.
I would rather music be off or down low after 10pm. I'm not going to...
