37” spare tire - list of tires that fit under the bed

[fourfa]

Do you think it would hit an oem track bar? I have the same tires

I do, it looks too close. But I haven’t tried it (and not going to, sorry - I had the track bar on before the tires)

No worries, all id hve to do is try when I get home, it seemed to close from frame to frame tho so I never did

Here are some pics of a brand new Milestar Patagonia M/T - 37x12.5x17 on a Method bead grip 17x8.5 inch rim. I had to air down to 8 psi to get it to fit. I am using a Clayton bent track bar with a Clayton 3.5" overland plus lift kit. Note: a new Goodyear Kevlar MTR in the same size, with the same rim, did not fit even with no air.

Holy weights Batman! Did they Red dot mount your tires??

Really dumb question, but for those of you with a bent Metalcloak rear track bar, the bend is supposed to open towards the rear for more clearance, right (concave towards the rear)? Mine concaves towards the front which means the bend intrudes into the space of the spare wheel, instead of bending away from the space...but this is incorrect, right?

I can confirm that a Nitto Recon Grappler in 37x11.5r17 fits

Once I get the truck back from the shop, I can crawl underneath and take some pictures of the clearance.

You’re correct, that it’s incorrect.

Darn it, thought so! Thanks for the confirmation, now I get to break out the tools!

Any time. Could have been worse. You caught it.

Ya that trackbar sound like it just might be facing the wrong direction! On the right track now.

This might be a case where a used tire as a spare would benefit the fit. All these new tires are full size, and at their largest.

Just about anyone on 37’s is lifted, and most quality complete lift kits replace the rear track bar. So while most gladiators may have a stock rear track bar, as it pertains to this thread I think more people probably have an aftermarket one.

A lot of us have the Mopar 2" lift kit that keeps us under warranty.

I may be wrong, but i don't think that kit includes an upgraded track bar.

 

[Bjeepz]

Mopar lift doesn’t include trackbars…. I mean why would anybody want a square wheel position under a square vehicle, craziness!!

A 37/12.5-17 Eldorado Mud Claw Extreme on the oem spare steel rim fits with the Clayton bent trackbar.
