Those red wheels look freakin' amazing on that jeep.If your talking a Rubicon with 4.10 gear ratio you’ll be fine. I ran 35s for two months and I’m now running 37s with stock gears and stock HD breaks on a 2 Liter 4 cylinder turbo automatic. You’ll need to use a Tazer or some other programmer to update your speedometer and tranny but other than that there will only be a slight downgrade in acceleration and braking.
I don’t know what excessively heavy is. 37s?
You will notice the difference.
Yeah, unfortunately I liked the stock ride. I’m sorry I messed with it.
The reason I resist. There are advantages to lifts and bigger tires, but there are decided disadvantages as well.
I wish you would've picked a lighter 35" tire and wheel combo...makes a noticeable difference. The 315/70/17 ko2 load c on quadratec 41 wheels drive well with the 6 speed.
I would love to try it but afraid that if i hate it, i have to go through selling another batch of tires. Unfortunately the tire places don't let your return.
FYI I have been running 35 inch KO2's on the stock rims for quite a while now in a manual JLUR, and although it isn't horrible, it needs a gear change.
I would only go 4.56 with 35s and you have the rubicon transfer case to help with the manual. I have light duratracs 315/70r17 and manual 4.56 and I don’t go over 70mph now or else the rpms are up by 3k and she gets hungry for gas. But at 60-63 in 6th it cruises along perfect and I don’t have to downshift on the highway, unless there is a large hill but normally its fine
