Stock 23 Mojave/stock wheels/37's

[KevinC]

Got them installed today. 37x12.50x17 BFG KO2.
Currently running 35psi. I may adjust as I put some drive time in. So far they ride nice.
I do rub the inner fender at full lock. Will make small adjustment to steering stops.
Tires measured out at 35.5" That is what I sert the Jscan to and the speedo was dead on. First try. The stock Falken AT3W's was set in Jscan at 32.75" ?? They measured out at 32" But my speedo was accurate.

This is my plan when I get new tires. Can you post how you end up adjusting your steering stops and how it works out?

Any level kit or anything or stock suspension?

Somewhere closer to 36.25-36.5 will likely be most accurate with those tires at normal inflation

Measuring diameter while installed and loaded is a bit misleading, as the rolling circumference of the tire does not change just because the tire is loaded and squatting some.

Hence why the factory setting was 32.75” for a tire listed at 32.8”.

Stock.
Cycled the suspension the best I could last night and found I had some slight rubbing on the inner fender liner at full lock in reverse. Only on the driver side though. I trimmed a little off and no more rubbing. Everything is tight, not much room for error.

The bed bar/roll bar/chase rack is from Bruiser Conversations. https://bruiserconversions.com/
I went to Jeep Beach looking for a particular bar and found this one on their Company Gladiator they had on display at the show. Talked to the shop foreman who built it and he said it was just something he played around with one day while he had some time. It's one of one, said his shop doesn't want to tie up their time doing stuff like this. I guess that makes it uniquely mine. Here it is on my 2020 JTR

The original owner of my Mojave had Synergy wheel spacers installed with 37x13.5R17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. It had zero rub with normal daily driving with that setup. It did have a decent amount of tire poke since the tires were so wide. I never got a chance to run it off road since I jumped over to my Icon wheels and ditched the spacers. Overall though, I thought it drove pretty well.

@KevinC the rig looks fantastic! Thank you for posting. This information is critical when considering going bigger on the tires.
