Want to replace the stock 33 inch (32.5 is what I've heard they really are) Wildpeaks on my 2025 Mojave.
What metric size is a true 35 inch tire?
I am really happy with the Wildpeaks both on the freeway and off-road so I think I will stick with those. Want to keep the same aspect ratio as well I think
Stock wheels are staying as I don't want any balance issues as it drives really smooth now.
Any suggestions on what size to go with would be appreciated!
I have 35"x12.50" Falken Wildpeaks mounted on the stock Mojave rims. I do have an AEV Mojave 2" spacer lift and I added the Mopar fender flare extension and Rokblokz removable mud flaps which keep my side winter clear during winter months.

My 285/70R17 Wildpeaks (factory Mojave/Rubicon tires) are about 31.5" with the weight of the truck sitting on them.

For a true 35" worth of measured tire sitting on the ground, I'd think you'd have to run a 37" (advertised).
Reading this is the first time I've understood the people arguing. Some people are talking free diameter and others are talking loaded height! Thank you.
I just think of free diameter, and adding two inches should add two inches either way. Roughly anyway, as long as you're using the real measurements and not trying to calculate, since I've seen up to a one inch difference for tires with the same numbers on the side. Reminds me of how TV's stopped using real measurements and instead started saying something like '60" Class' to cover that you only get 58.6"

Yea tire debates are a dumpster fire.

A) What the manufacturer advertises as the official 'title' size.
B) What it actually is, unmounted, no weight - the height listed in the spec's of the tire.
C) What it actually is, mounted, under the weight of the truck - the height one of us measures in real life when it's on our truck.

Some folks say they want 35s and get mad when they are 33" under the weigh of the truck.

Some folks say they want 35s are are happy because they fit exactly like they wanted.

And then everyone gets confused when talking about it. On the truck? Off the truck? 'Advertised Height'? Etc.

Kinda like when you buy a 2x4 and get home and come to find out - she ain't 2 inches by 4 inches 😆

I just want tires to fill the wheel wells, but not rub and not hurt mileage. So only the impossible.

I’d stick with a similar width ….
Say for instance… 35 x 11.50 (Wildpeak makes a 35x11.5).
I believe the 35x11.5 Wildpeaks are load range C I believe. Check that they match the load range of the current tire. If your towing or adding equipment like Racks, Roof top tent, Load range C may not be enough. All depends on your load. Anything over a 11.5 on a stock rim 17x7.5 will mount but generally over the manufactures specification. I did the same, keeping my stock wheels., going with the Wildpeak AT3 at the time in a 285/75R17, 33.8". Load range e as I tow a camper. I'm probably going to go with Nitto Ridge Grapplers as they have a 35x11.5R17 in load range E. Hope this helped.

I’m running 315/70s here on stock rim, stock height with no rub and very minimal poke almost exactly flush

I just had the Mopar 2" lift kit and Wildpeak 35"s (11.5") installed (I kept the stock rims). I had to take a 450 mile drive on I25 right after and the '25 JTR drives better than when it was new.

If you don't mind, can you post some pics of this setup?
I am considering going to those tires since they are Load "C" and narrow enough for the stock wheels. I am also wondering about how much lift is needed, I was thinking I could get away with just some 3/4" pucks on the springs to save some $$. But, if the 2" lift works really well with this, I would consider it.

35x11.50 Maxxis Razr ATs on otherwise stock Mojave.

And the mounted Razrs compared to the unmounted Falkens

This is my exact same setup. Same tire and same factory rim. No issues whatsoever. My set up can be seen in my profile pic. Would recommend.

I'll reply with some later today JM.

That looks great!
Did you go with the Bilsteins or Fox Shocks with the Mopar lift?
Bilsteins, I'm pretty sure that's all they use now.

btw, I'm from NJ (Monmouth County), where are you in that madness?
