The Quadratech wheels look great on your Rubi. Any issues with the spare mounting on the stalk for the spare/back up camera mount?
. None at all. I have everything including the shroud on it.

Seeing the pictures side by side I agree. The 37's look better. I am worried that getting in and out of the Jeep with 37's and a 2" lift if going to be a hassle. I am 5'10" and the current Rubicon with 33's is about as high as I want for getting in and out. I figured the 37's/lift will add 4" to the seat height. Any issues on your side - do you notice it?

I was leaning to getting 35's and no lift.
You do notice it's higher, but it's not as severe as the lift was. If you're after fender gap more than lifting, then 35s without a lift would be perfect, and much cheaper. However with the lift, IMHO it just makes sense going to 37.

Newb here: I was told the stock rubi wheels wouldn't work with a 37" tire? I guess I was misinformed? They said the wheel is a 7.5 and that I needed at least an 8.5-11? Thanks

It's recommended for at least an 8.5, but it'll work just fine with an 8" wheel...

Yep, but the truth is that they work fine with 7.5, too. A number of people have done it and say they work well on and off road. Not sure I'd do it, but then again 37's are just larger than I would want.

I found these very interesting at the Jeep Invasion in NJ. 22,24,28 rims and 42,44,45,46’ tires
Not so much my style but there was a lot of work that went into making it work

On the 35 or 37 with lift, I bought a JSPEC 2.5 Lift, Evo control arm relocation brackets and now I’m having second thoughts about the 35`s with a lift. I jacked up the front frame rail and under the trailer hit.ch to exactly 2.5 inches over the stock height deminsons and I am not so sure about adding the lift. I think it would look better with 37`s. I had a AEV 3.5 lift with 35`s on my JK and it looked proportional?? I know everyone’s taste is different and that’s what makes America great (less taxes would be nice) but I never knock somebody’s Jeep down because it’s not done “my way” keep posting the pics they are really great to see what’s available and how it looks before buying it and having remorse
JUST MIGHT BE A JSPEC 2.5 LIFT ON THE MEMBERS FORUM OR STOCK RUBICON SUSPENSION AND 5 35’ BFG KM`S ON THERE?????

Installed RC 2.5" this weekend. Cooper 37x12.5's today!
Any issues with the 37's on the stock 17 - 7.5 wheels? Tire discounters told me today that a 37" tire wouldn't work on a 7.5 wheel, but some others on here disagreed saying they would work. I've seen those rubi wheels on here with 37's, just curious if you've noticed any issues? Thanks
