35s and No Lift Thread

[AHenry014]

Excellent thanks. One of the complaints I had seen about these is that they kick up a lot of rocks. Hopefully that's not the case.

I too read that, and saw a lot of Bronco guys remove them for that reason. Went down a semi gravel road last night and didn’t experience that, but time will tell. I figured I could toss some mud flaps on there should it become an issue.

255/85r17 Mickey Thompson Baja Boss ATs. No lift. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea but I'm really liking these narrow tires.

Just put 315/70R17 KO2’s with the XR wheels from a 392. Wheel spacers and a leveling kit on my Overland

Jeep did great with those wheels.

It is my cup of espresso! I am doing the same…

They're really great tires. They make me wish I'd gone narrower on my previous Wranglers. The steering feels more responsive now, and snow/off road handling handling has been fantastic.

Hopefully you like them too

JTR with 17x9 et12 Rock Trix wheels, 315/70r17 Goodyear Territory MT's (bronco sasquatch tire). No lift. Likely going to do the 1" portion of the teraflex level.

Great looking Gladiator! If yours is still stock height with 35s maybe you can help me. Im the second owner of my Gladiator and it has 35s and looks like it has a lift on it, i would love to know what size the lift is but i dont. is there anyway you can measure your jeep from the ground to the bottom of the fender and maybe snap a picture of the measurement, Front and rear? I would really appreciate it! Thanks my friend!

It's nice to see the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT tires in the snow. The narrow tires should work well.

They have been great so far. I'm heading from Vancouver to Banff this weekend and it looks like the whole province is getting hit with a fresh storm so that will likely be a good test.

Thank you for the heads up, you should be able to give a good review of how they do in the snow with your upcoming trip. We look forward to hearing how they do.

Have fun and be safe.

Any further updates? I'm really wanting to pick up a set of these but a tad nervous of their feel compared to the stock wild peak a/t tires

I noticed those you have are load range D - 10 ply. Curious what pressure you're running and if they're a rough ride.

Yes, sorry I posted my experiences with them in a different thread.

Short version is I think they're great. The ride is the same as stock, and the handing feels better. Traction in a variety of snow conditions has been excellent. I've now driven through the Canadian Rockies once and the Coquihalla Highway (featured numerous times on those dangerous truck driving shows) twice, hitting blizzards both times. Traction in water is definately better than the stock Wildpeaks. Mileage took a bit of a hit, but not much, and the increased clearance and offroad performance is worth it to me. Only con I can see is the tires won't provide as much flotation, if you need that. Hope that helps.

I dont think the Max Tow package has the air dams-if you are referring to the one that bridges from the bumper to the fender...

35's, no lift, no wheel spacers, stock wheels, Max Tow (as you can tell by the fender lip). It was only that way til my lift arrived, but wife drove it daily and no rubbing or issues.

forgive me as I'm a new owner of a used 2021 and I have the fender lip also, so is it safe to assume I have the max tow package?

35x12.50 Toyo AT3s on stock wheels. 32 PSI seems to be working well, no rubbing.

Not gonna lie, myself and even the tire installer had our doubts about no lift and 35's (measure 33.7 installed at 32psi) But MAN do these look amazing! Sorry for the half-assed shots but it's pouring outside, I'll post a better photo tomorrow.

Goodyear 315/70r17 (Goodyear says 34.4)
21' Sport Max Tow - no lift (yet), no spacers - zero rub
