Hello Guys, just had my wheels installed 37x12.5xr17 and my Gladiator height went up about 3 inches. My Garage door entrance is 80 inches and the Rubicon is almost 77". If I get a 3.5 inch Rough Country Lift Kit, will my Gladiator Rubicon will increase additional 3.5" inch high?

Thank you.

How did you get an extra 3 inches with just tires? Didn’t you go from 33s to 37s?

Not sure if that math adds up, KO2’s are notorious for not measuring up to 37 but closer to 35. Even with a true 37, from a 33 you should only gain 2 inches.

now that I think about it, I had the falken mt’s which measured 32 inches true, and my mickeys measure 37 true so I gained 2.5 inches of truck height from mine

@kdaa25 I'd double check that measurement. I have a 2020 Rubi with the 3.5" Rough Country Lift and 37" KO2s and my highest measurement is right at 76.5". I just stepped out to measure it twice to confirm.

Also, the 37" KO2's measure at about 36.5", which would've added about 2" of lift, depending on inflation pressure.

I will say that I have an aftermarket bumper and winch, so that may account for a little bit.

I had to go to an 8' garage door, especially when I have my RTT on. I'm just glad to hear you are parking in the garage and not leaving it out to get weathered. The 8' door was about a grand. After the door was installed, I just needed a power door extension from Lowes to get the Opener connected and working again. Good luck
