Could stock 35's be coming to the JT??

[Garemlin]

I would think so

2022 Wrangler Rubicons Will Come With Optional 35s, Beadlocks, Upgraded Tire Carrier

If it does, it would be in response to Ford offering 35-inch tires on Bronco with the Sasquatch package.

Seems strange that Jeep didn’t offer 35-inch tires with the Wrangler 392, though.

True bead lock wheels are illegal for street use in some states. I don't see Jeep offering an illegal vehicle for purchase.

CAPABLE is there legal out. lol They are Beadlock-Capable.

They dont come with the beadlock rings. You will have to purchase those from Mopar Performace and they will specify off-road only.

I wonder if that has anything to do with the recent spate of dealers being "unable" to recalibrate for larger tires?

Letting the darker part of my brain run free for a minute... Fiat gave Jeep a pretty long leash with the JL/JT. There are a LOT of details that the bean counters and lawyers at GM would never sign off on. if "A" is dealers' inability to recalibrate speedos, "B" is 35s as a factory/dealer option likely for 2022, and A+B=C, what is C? Will the Tazers and JL Scans be locked out? What else would they make impossible or much more difficult for the end users to do in the name of increasing sticker prices? Let's be honest with ourselves, Jeeps are cash cows. Jeep's engineering department has about as much to do as Porsche's design department (come to think of it, the Jeep design department hasn't exactly been busy in any conventional way), and the prices are sky high anyway. Stellantis seems to be proving that dropping an engine out of a $32K pickup into a similarly priced SUV results in an $80K price gouge... What's next?

Depending on your perspective, the aftermarket is one of the Jeep platform's most powerful assets OR one of the greatest missed opportunities...

To go to a bigger tier size requires all sorts of VDC recalibration and validation from a manufacturer. That takes time AND money. Even though I agree that (especially at the price) the 392 should have had 35s, the bean counters just might not have greenlighted it.
If this info is correct, then I'd expect the '22 392 Rubicons to get 35s for sure.

That's exactly how Ford's Sasquatch wheels are.

It will be interesting to see what, if any suspension and drivetrain mods Jeep makes for the 35's.

The Jeep/Ram wheels that are capable come with a true inner bead for legal use, and then a beauty ring. You can however purchase a real beadlock ring and mount the tire on the outside of the inner bead turning it into a beadlock.

Thanks Ford Bronco

My guess is MOPAR lift and 4.56. Doubt they mess with the transmission, far easier to do gearing.

This. Figure it's coming. Betting we lose fold down windshield and get some more aerodynamic changes next model to try and keep the numbers somewhat in check. I don't know what the bronco mpg numbers look like but if they are better than wrangler with bigger factory tires and similar offroad experience it'll be a contender for sure.

That's a great insight!

The Bronco comes with 4.70s with the 35s.
