Those tires look as large as my 315/70r17 ko2sHere is what 37's look like on a JLURD with a Mopar lift. I will probably look at the new Nitto 38x12.5x17 for the next set.
I also immediately felt a difference when I had load D tires for about a week before I replaced them with my current 35” load C ko2s. It’s one of those subjective things. There are members on this forum who will swear that there is absolutely no difference in ride quality between a load C tire and a load E tire. Which is very curious indeed.Not for nothing, but I immediately felt an increased stiffness when I went from C-rated 38x13.5 Milestar Patagonias @ 35psi to D-rated 40x13.5 Patagonias @ 35psi. I thought the 1" thicker air cushion would've offset the higher load range, but if it did, it wasn't enough of an offset to not notice as soon as I was pulling out of the tire shop parking lot.
Agree about it being subjective to both the person and the setup of each Jeep. As far as no felt difference between a C and E, yeah well, I wouldn't buy that for a dollar.
Hmmm. Mine are 37x12.5x17 KO2'sThose tires look as large as my 315/70r17 ko2s
A load E tire at 20 psi rides like a load C at 30 in my experience. The higher the load rating the lower the psi you'll want to run on a Jeep.
I will be going from a MC 2.5" lift to a 3.5" soon and the increased gap and how it may look was at the back of my mind (I also have BFG K02 in 37's). With that said, your "dirty" shot looks like it settled in nicely and the gap is fine.The 37" KO2s look a little better once it settles in, but they do look smallish for the lift size.
A couple reference shots, this is a 4xe, but I'd assume the MC 3.5" will end up at a similar height regardless. This is MC 3.5" with 37" KO2 (Ds). Shock eye to eye ~24" F / ~27" R. Clean is immediately after lift, dirty has a thousand miles or so on it.
Is that with a 3.5" lift? Also, what is the measured height when mounted?The D rated 37x12.50r17 Baja Boss AT we have on the 18 JLUR rides nicely. IMO, probably the best looking AT available.
The first pic was literally just backed out of the garage immediately after install, and my driveway does have some slope to it which may be distorting it.
Anything noticeable right off the bat?Not my JL but i just put 38 inch Ridge Grapplers on my JTR. Replaced the 37 Ko2, both C load.
you can tell a slight increase in weight (mind you this is a 3.6 not a 392) and they're not as smooth but i like the steering feel these provide over the Ko2.
I have had a 392 with BFG KO2`s 35`s on it, and now I have a 392 XR with 37" BFG KO2`s on it.
Or you could do what I did and go straight to E and not know what I’m missing ?
