WOW! Love the red. I ordered solid White Dual Top Rubicon. Delivery will be in the next few weeks. Looking for Rock Rails. I think these will do just fine. Do you have the item number for yours? Can you post please. Thank you!

Posted mine on a couple threads already and since I have 37’s I’ll post here.Quite a few awesome looking JL’s already!!! 2” Mopar Lift , Mopar tailgate reinforcement/relocation brackets, 37” KO2’s, 17” DV8 882 beadlocks. I’ll be in Costa Rica the end of the month and it’ll get the winch and LEDS while I explore CR some more in a rented Jeep.... I’ve owned a 2010 JKUR and 2014 JKUR.. both on 35’s.. this JL drives really nice, can’t hear the tires over the wind at any speed, first time with KO2’s, JK’s had Cooper and TOYO. I had a 500 mile drive home after picking it up and over 100 miles with 50+ mph wind gusts which was no fun, other than that it did great..
WOW!!!

Are you able to post the overall height with the 37's and Mopar lift?

These Rims... really dress up your Rubicon. Must have been so exciting when you first saw it done. Wonder how the red accent Rims would look on my White Rubicon...

I'm in love with your Jeep too!

I want to replicate this look on the Sting-Gray I have ordered. I really like the stance you've got with your backspacing and tire setup. My question is, what spacers do I need to achieve the same footprint as yours? In other words, what is the backspacing on the stock rubi wheels? I'm hoping to avoid a wheel purchase, for now.

How much do your tires stick out past the fenders?

Thanks!

Thanks for responding. So with the suspension lift will I be able to take my Jeep on some off-road trails without having to worry about wheel travel being an issue? I’ll wait for the aftermarket to catch up but for not I’ll go with a spacer lift.
The factory suspension has less travel then a spring lift. A spacer lift will retain the factory travel, which is good BTW. Like I said I’ve run both and never really felt the spacer lift held me back with a Rubicon and its lockers. If you like to run harder trails a spring lift with more travel will allow you to do more. The travel is really all down travel over up unless you are going with fender mods.

Watch this video - https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/fo...5-lift-on-the-rubicon-at-chinaman-gulch.5664/ This Jeep has the RC spacer lift and 35’s..you can see they are getting along fine.

Thank you.

I'm not certain on the stock wheel back spacing but I think you'll run close to this stance with 1.5" wheel spacers and give you enough room to clear 37" tires lock to lock.

Thanks. I think I read somewhere that stock back spacing was 5.5, so with 1.5 spacers I'd actually be .5 shy of your setup.

Would it be possible for you to post a picture of your jeep from the front, strait on so I can see how much your tires stick out?

It does, thanks! Unfortunately here in PA that wouldn't pass inspection. Never stopped me before though. Especially with spacers, I could just remove the spacers for inspection then throw them back on. I've never actually been pulled over for tread sticking out past the fender flare. Stupid rule if you ask me.
