I have 35” ridge grapplers E rated. What dealer ordered that was in stock at the time.
I just ordered the new ko2 37” C rated. It rides terribly with E rated grapplers. I hate driving it on rough roads. Love the look of the tire but it is terrible even at 28 psi. Never again.
some people say they get used to it, to each their own. No point in living with that of I don’t need to. Cant wait for KO2s
I had E rated 35s Ridge Grapplers on my JK and it felt like a dump truck. For my JLUR I made a point to not make that mistake again. I ordered 37 in D load Ko2s and as they were delivered, I heard about the new C loads. Sent the Ds back and ordered the Cs as well.

Should be here next week.

My kendas are E rated and 3 ply side walls. So far, no major difference on the small bumps really compared to the stock good year wrangler tires. I think the difference is the amount of sidewall and foot print comparing stock to 35s.

Just make sure you adjust tire pressure. That’s gonna have a bigger effect on ride than side wall ply imo.
Hey! are you still happy with those klevers? im thinking about getting some for my jeep. Also, did you regear? if not, how does it drive vs stock?

Very happy with them so far. So far about 15k on them and love them. Handled the sand and rocks I threw at it down here in south florida.

Stock gears for now(planning rubi axles soon though so i’ll see how 4.10s feel). It sees 8th gear sometimes at 70mph depending on how windy it is. I’m running them around 31psi.

sweet thank you much! I am debating between these and the AT2 version! Though i do like the idea of pizza cutters in the snow up here in the PNW.

i have been impressed with the 3.6L etorque, i think it should handle it just fine, i didnt notice a difference going from stock to rubicon 33s. So fingers crossed ill feel the same way or close to with the 35s
