I learned from experience, if reprogrammed for the correct tire size there was little performance difference between 35s and 37s on highway, and a significant improvement on the trail. I had already regeared when I bumped the tires from 35 to 37. A Gladiator with the 8 speed and 4:10s will do just fine in most situations, you just won't see 8th gear as often.

I have 37 x 13.50 on my 2020 Sport S with the Max Tow. It does just fine and I average 18 MPG....better than my 2014 Silverado with 36's

I have 37Ă—13.5s with an AEV 2" spacer lift for now. 16,000 miles on this set up and it's been great been to 12 different states and a fair amount of wheeling and has done me well.

I'm going to finish out my Metal Cloak 3.5 Game changer lift and 5.13s in the coming months.

Bottom line are 37s on 4.10s doable and easy to live with, I say yes. And I'm coming from build GM trucks that were geared, cammed and stalled. I'm not disappointed at all. Works surprisingly well. Expectation management is key. Yeah I'm not hitting 100mph in 3rd gear.......but it's a different platform and use

Take my opinion for what it's worth. Either way I don't dread or hate road trips, I enjoy them

You can run 4.10s but they are not ideal. I did the 4.88s and they are ideal. I see 8th on the freeway and can accelerate in it. But if you want to keep the factory gears you will be ok.
