I recommend doing a search. There's a whole thread about it in the Tires & Wheels sub-section of the forum.

I started this thread a couple days ago....... with pictures. Read this thread below and see the pictures of how tight it is and then find out for yourself.

https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/...ting-new-wheels-check-your-spare-first.33244/

My 35's barely fit but some say that they fit 37's.... the problem is that all tires are different actual heights and a small 36" thats called a 37" might fit but a full 37" inch tall might not.

I have a 37" Nitto Mud on a AEV Borah rim under our JTR.

Now understand that it didn't just fit without rubbing on the track bar.

I had to trim the extra 3/16" - 1/4" of the receiver hitch tub on the back side without touch the weld. Then put three flat washers on the two heat shield bolts that face the axle to move it towards the axle.

After these two mods, my 37" spare does not RUB the track bar.

Any questions, please ask.

Ooh, forgot to mention. I run 40 psi on all 5 tires, yes including the spare. I air down for the trail, 17 psi front and 23 psi rear.

Is that a special edition or did you get that stripe across the tailgate decal'ed or painted? I like that look.

Yes, depending on the brand you may have to deflate your spare, I stuffed a patagonia 37” but had to deflate, these run pretty true to size.

It looks good. I have a Hydro Pearl Blue Mojave coming next week and with the color match top and fenders, I am looking for attractive ways to break up the blue brightness just a touch. I might have to pirate that idea. I imagine on the tailgate, it would hold up well as long as care was taken when loading/unloading from the bed.
Thanks!
