Can I run 16" wheels on a Maxtow package gladiator?

[@californiajeeping]

I bought a set of maxxis for my old CJ and they are a bit too big after measuring. Is there any chance I can run a 16" wheel with the max tow gladiator and run these 37s on it?


On my old JK sport I ran 15" aluminum wheels and they cleared. The Gladiator may be able to squeeze a 16" on?

I don't believe they will clear the brake calipers.

17's are persnickity on where the wheel weights are positioned so the calipers don't rub them off.

Nope!

Great. Guess my cj8 is on 37s I'll try and cancel my eBay order real quick.

Only 1 way to find out... And you have both sitting right there... Pull one tire/wheel off of the JT, and see if it fits and clears the caliper when it rolls. You never know till you find out. You might prove the narrative/notion wrong.
