Here is mine on 37's and 17's, you will need to pay attention to backspacing at that size, that is when tires begin to rub on control arms at flex. I think the backspacing on the AEV wheels are about as close as you can get without adjusting steering stops.

I believe my current wheels have 4.37 backspacing. Know if that would cut it with Sport axles?

Can you fit 37s in a normal garage? My last 21 did with 315s did with room to spare, but it wasn’t very tall even thought I had JLUR suspension in it to handle the weight.
I’ll measure my garage door to make sure but I think I have 3” to spare with my 35s which are really 34”

FYI. I wore out a set of 37x12.5x17 Cooper stt pros on my JLR which I bought to off road rough terrain. I enjoyed them off-road much more than on. I now have flipped the JLR's use to mostly easy forest service roads and run 35's. They are much easier to live with and work better with the JLR's 4.10 axle gears. https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/showcase/biscuit.1163/
thanks for sharing the build. Badass Jeep. like a Stormtrooper. Did you end up going with the spacers and taking out the lift? If so is the on road ride much better?

MC 2.5 GC (M/T and soft-top) with 39’s. Front fenders are rubi knock offs (MP Concepts) and rears are split Sport fenders.
What wheels are those I really like them

Hutchinson Rock Monsters. Double beadlock wheels. They’re multi-piece and can be built at home and balanced traditionally or with beads. I use beads with the 39’s, but had them traditionally balanced with the KO2’s.
Edit: @yokramer , I forgot to quote.

Gonna have to add those to the list of wheels now. Thanks for the link.
