These fit perfectly on stock wheels. Also keeps them tucked under the fenders.

Just ordered a set from Walmart. On sale for $155.

Still looking for anyone with these on stock wheels to give actual tire hight mounted.

Just had them mounted on my stock Rubi wheels last week and they measure at 33.75”. Was slightly disappointed as I was hoping for at least 34” after reading others measure at 34.3”. Still happy with the purchase and especially that they stay tucked inside my fenders

Did you measure before install on vehicle or off. On vehicle if you measure from ground up it will read slightly smaller due to weight of vehicle on tire slightly flatting at the ground.
Mine measured just over 34 off vehicle.

It is disappointing. The specs show it's supposed to be 34.76" unmounted and you can lose up to an inch after mounting and also depending on what psi you have it set on. I had 315/70r17 on my Wrangler once that were 34.3 unmounted and 33.25 mounted and running about 32psi. Pretty much have to buy 37" tires if you want close to 35". I wonder if anyone makes a 37x10.5. That would be sweet. I know there's a 37x11.5.

Measured from ground up on vehicle. Gained 1.25” overall going from the stock Wildpeaks to the Kendas.

Been waiting for Walmart to drop the price again for a month. I figured a holiday weekend would have been the time but it was not. Pulled the trigger at $174/piece to get all five.

Yeah, that sucks they wouldn't be available on 17". Here's a pic of them on the 18" rims https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/nitto-37x11-50r18s.30155/post-492975

Thats what I am looking for too, any 37x10.5 or 11.5 x17. Cant find any tire at all that matches that. Starting to wonder if there are safety or manufacturing reasons why, or is it just lack of perceived interest since so many want the bro dozer look>

 

[Soedog]

So got the Teraflex 1.5” leveling kit and Daystar 3/4” rear spacers on.
The stance is just what I was hoping for
For me this combination with the 35”x10.5”x17” Kenda’s is ideal.
Rides just like stock with no noticeable difference in handling.
