2.0 L Turbo Engine with 35 Inch Tires

[Alan A]

Would the Turbo 2.0 4-banger Mild Hybrid handle 35 inch tires on the rubicon trim?

I would imagine it would be ok with the 4.10 gears. We will see...

Absolutely as it has more torque than the V6 so why wouldn't it?

I wonder how the 3.6 and 2.0 would compare in regards to 37-40 inch tires. The 3.6 has ore horsepower but the 2.0 has more torque and the power really kicks in at 3,000 rather than 4,800 with the 3.6.

The 2.0 may actually be the better option based on that information. Additionally the 2.0 can probably be chipped for a 20-50 hp gain.

I'm really interested in the 2.0 turbo. I never owned a turbo engine till I bought a Focus RS. I know they are totally different but wow turbos are great. Lots of power almost no lag.......along with the BSG system i think the low end will be great and crusing along in 8th gear should sip fuel, unless it needs to be in boost all the time to keep the Jeep moving.......I've had a JKR, JKUR, and a WK2 all with the 3.6 and I really like it but at higher elevations I think the 2.0 turbo would lose less overall power then the 3.6 NA motor. Depends on cost a bit too.....I'm sure the diesel would be great but I'd rather stick with gas.

Been running fairly heavy 76lb 35s for 18 months.. no issues still very quick ... engine has been great... other issues with steering transmission and water pump.. but engine was solid... very noisy especially when cold.. but pushes the 35s around just fine

38x13.5's and stock 4.10's. The 2.0 and 8-speed combo handles them just fine. Still snaps up to speed without needing a heavy foot.

So far so good for me. Only been on for 4k miles on my '21, though.

I have 35” Milestar Patagonias with Rock Monster rims. Wheels are about 110lbs a piece. My 2.0 non-etorque pulls them around no problem with factory 4.10 gears.

I've been running 35's for almost 7k miles and I find it just a responsive as stock. I did have the Tazer-Mini to reprogram from stock tire size.
