-38mm offset....pictures please! (KMC beadlocks, Dirty Life DT's, etc.)

Great looking rig, Mark. Love the stance. Thanks for the visuals!

P.S. how are your Milestars holding up? Considering pulling the trigger on 37s as I will be doing an axle swap in the future and I don't wheel terribly hard at this point.

I have about 14,000 miles on them now and they’ve been fine. I live near Denver so they’ve seen some snow and been fine. My off-roading is all in Colorado and Utah so no mud, just rocks. Only complaint I have is that they have been hard to keep balanced. Difficult to know how much of that is the tire itself vs all the abnormal wear and tear they get while rock crawling.

I won’t promote that they are the best tire on the planet, but they have done well for me

Here is mine at 3.5 backspace. I love the look and allows me to see the tire placement when wheeling.

Rubicon, KMC Machete beadlocks, Cooper STT Pro 37's. It's wide...but I love the stance. Gotta watch the curbs at drive through windows, lol.

This thread is awesome! Watching!

I was hoping to see the KMC XD231 RG Race(0 offset) and KMC XD232 RG Race (-38 offset), but i cant find much info about them

Those are the only 2 wheels i like and i dont think ill be able to fit the -38 onto my rubicon diesel, i think it will rub! I might just go with the 0 offset version!

This thread is amazing, hopefully more people post their configs and pics here!

How wide of a rim & What size tire are you running with that setup and what is the offset, looks awsome!!

 

[Rangemaster]

Those are method rims bead lock with 4.5 offset on 17” rims. I went this route to deal with rocks an little of poke to avoid trashing the fenders and tail lights.

Dangggggg that's wideeee. Looks great though.....thinking i'm going to go the same route as I will eventually go with 37's. How have the Milestars held up?

The setup looks great that's the perfect amount of poke! So that's a 37-12.5-17 with how much offset??

Are these methods 106 or 312 ?? Real beadlocks with 3.5 backspace or beauty ring and 4.5 backspace???

Those are the real thing, 3-1/2” backspace method beadlocks.

37" Milestars weigh 8 pounds less than my 35" Trail Grapps lol.

That just means you have 8 lb less rubber on on a 2-in taller tire. I don't know man, that's probably not a good thing.

I will say the Trail Grapplers have 3/32s more tread depth than the Patagonias, 21/32s versus 19/32s. Typically I would say that's where the weight reduction comes from, but again the 19/32 tire is 2 in taller.… They cut that weight somewhere, just hope it's not from the sidewall.
