Sweet looking ride you've got there! Whereabouts in New York are you? I'm on long Island.Rough Country 2.5" Lift and 37" Patagonias on 17x9 Fuel Assault Wheels
Also on Long Island by Jones Beach...Thank you for the sweet ride comment!Sweet looking ride you've got there! Whereabouts in New York are you? I'm on long Island.
Threads like this need a warning cause it’s evil.
I’m sitting here already planning for 35s on my sport but then see 37s look right on the jlu making me think 35s look small. But then i’m gonna look at regearing and lockers. But the cost might be equal to me just buying rubi take offs.
And that’s the rabbit hole i see
Go with the 37's you wont regret it!Threads like this need a warning cause it’s evil.

Are those 12.50 or 13.50? Either way nice rim selection, they don't stick out too far to throw AS MANY rocksNew shoes
How do you like the Cooper's vs the Pats? I will be ditching the Pats soon and thinking going back to Toyo MT or to Cooper STT pro. Thoughts?Can't remember if I ever posted to this thread so here you go.
Both Jeeps running 3.5" Teraflex ST3 lifts. Black Jeep (Sahara, Mud Muffin) running 37 Pats, Blue Jeep (Rubicon Fat Ninja) running 37 Coopers.
I like the Coopers over the Pats because they are more flat and feel more planted. They are a little noisier but they are also at 50% where the Pats are around 90% left. The Pats are also a stiff ride if you run them at 30-32psi. Ironically the 38" Pats are a C rating vs. D rating so they ride smoother. I run the Pats at 24psi cold for my wife sicne she has a neck fusion and they are too stiff of a ride above that.How do you like the Cooper's vs the Pats?

That C-rating is what made me skip over the 37's for a set of 38x13.50's. I run them at a cold 35psi, and they translate much less of the small cracks and bumps to the driver seat than the factory 285 ko2's. No slip in everything from that initial misting to full on torrential downpours. My driving habits are middle ground, not racing around and not taking it slow.I like the Coopers over the Pats because they are more flat and feel more planted.

I also don't like the way the Pats feel in the rain. The Mrs. likes them but does note she feels a little iffy in the rain.
