38" tires fit!!

[Rampager]

Sorry I don’t. I kept a small piece of the brace that connects the two and used existing connectors, new plastic rivets and some 3M double sided tape to secure parts. Want to avoid trying to fuse them or put a couple screws in. So far they are holding together great.

I love my 35" Duratracs. I wish they made them in 38s. I saw a video with 37 vs 35 " Duratracs and difference seemed minimal. I don't think I see any wear on those things even after 25k miles.

only way iveseen to get a 37” duratrac is 20” wheel and load range f.

Oh yeah, I've been hearing this latley but years ago they had them. They actually have a video of a guy comparing the 35" and 37" and they were both 17" wheel size.

I was running 37’s on my Sport S 6 speed manual with the original 3.73 gears. And no lift. It wasn’t too bad but could never use 6th gear. Finally got around to putting in 4.56 gears and that made a huge difference in starting off in first. After that I decided to get 38” tires and the factory 2” lift installed. I actually put on the 38” tire about 2 weeks before lift and there was no rubbing with street driving. Before I lifted it I upgraded to the 2 piece rubicon fenders so I could do the fender chop. I also installed the Quake LED fender lights and Artec aluminum inner fender liners. Between the lift and new fender set up I went from 4” fender clearance to almost 10” of course after installing 38” tires I had to come up with a new mounting solution for my full sized spare tire

Did you mount the extra wheel/tire on the Diamondback? If so, how did you do so?

I recently installed my 38x13.50 Patagonia’s on my sport s. 3” lift, no rubbing at all!

Thank you! The bumper is made by Cavfab. I think it’s the vantage series? Very nice and simple bumper, that’s why I wanted it. Definitely recommend it!

I just can’t see how that’s possible but more power to ya. My 35s rub the sport flares with a 3” lift.

I picked up my truck yesterday and the dealer had already installed the 2" lift earlier that day. Drove strait to the tire shop to swap on what i had ordered a few weeks ago. Toyo MT 38x13.5x18 tires. Wheels are 9" with -12mm offset. Tires fit perfect in my opinion. Working on removing the stock bumper for an ADD RockFighter right now. These trucks ROCK!!!

Looks nice

Got a question to the masses Jeep Gladiator community. I have a Gladiator Sport S non max tow. I will have to regear, I know. However, I currently have a 3.5 inch lift running 35x17x8.5 Nittos wrapped around Icon Rebound. I know, I know do not give me crap. I should have put 37s However uncle sam is on a budget and I wanted to run Nitto Ridge Grapplers well no such animal in a 37. I can get them in a 38. That leads me to this question. With the 3.5 inch lift from Rough Country could i run a 38 inch tire?

Can you? Of course you can. You can run a 40 if you stick to the streets. Any amount of flexing is going to require some serious bump stopping.
