Kenda Klever R/T KR601 35x10.50R17

[Willys2Gladiator]

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.

Looks Sweet. Did the same and couldn't agree with you more. Bonus.... It still fits in the garage. This combo does make it look just right. With all the crap the tires throw up on the body I would never concider anything wider that 10.5.

There’s a thread in the Show and Tell section of the forum dedicated to Sport S wheels with larger tires. There are plenty of dudes running 35x12.5s of other tire manufacturers on the stock wheels. I’m sure someone else can chime in with specifics, but if an x12.5 tire can fit just fine then an x10.5 should have no issues at all.

 

[Dwosgood]

Much better.

I bought these and added to stock rims, running 32psi. 36 originally but was too bouncy.

these fit perfectly. No lift needed. I took it off road and down a steep hill and no rubbing.
I have the Sport S with painted fenders, I think if you add with black fenders you would need to remove the air dam that connects to the bumper.

I really like these tires but I spend most time on pavement. How noisy are they? Also, how are they in the rain?

I was also looking at the 315 70 r17 ATs but they dont look as good.

Not loud. I haven’t been in rain with them yet.

I think I'm going to pull the trigger. I have been watching WaMa and the price is holding at 175. they dont have the option to get them mounted on their site. What are you guys doing to get them mounted? Your local tire shop? Thanks.

I went to Discount Tire. They charged me $150 but made sure nothing rubbed.

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

I was expecting a 1.75” increase over my 255/75/17 (32”) Wildpeak M/Ts by going to 35/12.5/17 Wildpeak M/Ts but my pumpkin sits only 1” higher from the stock 245/75/17 (31.5”) despite going about 4” of tire more

In theory, should gain

Local shop charged $25 per wheel to mount mine. Was like $134 out the door with tax.
