How are the Patagonias wearing ?
They are wearing well. I had a mishap with the valve stem on the drivers front tire. Long story short, I had to drive 80 miles back home at 18 psi keeping the speed under 65 the entire way. The tires look like they wore way down from doing this on a hot day. But, my oem tires and wheels have not been used since January, so they will go back into rotation and the Pats will get some rest until October or November. Who knows?lol.

My next set will be 39" BFGs. Until then, I am running the 38" Patagonias.

I was looking at those 39" KM3's myself , i wasn't originally thinking of 39's , but i was browsing tires specs and from what I've read they're not much bigger than a "fullsize" 37". I saw on a thread over on the JK forum where they measured 37.5" under the weight of the vehicle and the weight of them is right in line with a 37 , lighter than some of the heavier ones actually , such as the TOYO MT. I have a 3.5" Clayton lift on the way which is really a touch over 4 inches , so I probably have plenty room to clear them. I'd love to see these tires next to a "fullsize" 37" to get a good comparison , they're very tempting.

did you end up going with the 39”km3’s I’m having the same dilema trying to decide between 37’s or the 39’s which from what I’ve learned they’re 38” once they’re on the jeep ??‍♂

For this reason is why I want to get off the 37" BFG. Mine are measuring about 35.5" and would like to get close to the 37" measurement when on the ground.

Am I allowed to revive my own little old thread from the dead?

It's crazy I made that photoshop before launch and now I've got my Rubicon Diesel ordered and I'm shopping for 39s.

It only took like, 3.5 years

After looking at how people have been fitting 38s and 40s on their JL Wrangler I decided to photoshop up what the Gladiator would look like with appropriate lift and tires

I am once again replying to my own thread from 6 years ago to compare my initial Photoshop to my actual Jeep

Curious about this setup. I also have a Mojave with an AEV spacer lift and stubby front bumper. I am curious if you rub anywhere? Have you done any off-camber wheeling with front sway bar disconnected?

good looking Gladiator, I have the same color except a Willys...how much lift
4.5" over stock (at rear axle) EVO lift. This gave me about 6.0" over stock (at front axle). Full stuff with 38's rubs on inner front fenders slightly when disconnected.
