New Raptor Load Range C 37s?

[Mattyp1214]

I’m really excited to see these mounted. Since I know they are closer to a 35 inch I think it will actually be perfect. I just wanna see what they actually look like compared to the 33’s that come with a Rubicon.

Its quite a difference from stock. They are about 1" bigger than my 35 ridge grapplers (if they are the same diameter at the D rated)... I think it's going to be the perfect size.

Here's pictures of D-rated 37"

What do you think with the 392 semi lifted? Will wheel spacers need to be added or do you think these can work right out of the box since they’re smaller than a standard 37?

They will probably work fine on the road. But off-road it may rub without more modifications. Wish The 392 was out when I bought my Jeep, I guess I’d be much more broke tho!

I’m very blessed and fortunate to be buying a jeep right now. I’m very excited to get my 392. What additional modifications do you think need to be made? All the normal stuff for 37’s?

Discount tire just called. My C rated 37’s and wheels are in. Unfortunately, my lift is 2 weeks out…sigh

Check out YouTube I saw someone running a 392 with 37s. I assume it’ll be similar to a rubicon and you’d want 2”. Honestly I don’t know much about the 392 suspension. I haven’t researched it much otherwise I’d be trying to convince myself it’s a good idea to buy one haha. I’d think it’s going to be comparable to a rubicon model in the amount needed beyond stock.
here’s a link with a forum and a guy running 37s, he says it rubs a littleon stock wheel, maybe backspacing can fix that.

Just read through the thread you posted. He is running the 37 Ridge Grapplers, which I know are pretty close to size with a tiny bit of rubbing. I am wondering since these KO2's come in over an inch shorter than the Ridge Grapplers, if they would work with no rubbing? Hmmm

He’s on this forum too. If you’re driving around town go for it. If down the line you start off-roading then slap a lift on it

I already go off roading with our current regular so lift it is!

Fedex tracking says 65# per package, so hopefully they come in at 64# per as far as weight! Mine are getting installed Tuesday. I'll post up a report of how they drive Tuesday night as well

 

[Mattyp1214]

I'm shedding about 11# from my 35" ridge grapplers, thats crazy. Obviously much less aggressive thread and sacrificing sidewalls no doubt, but that helps offset the weight of a bigger wheel

My first two tires arrived Monday and my remaining two tires arrived today. Brought a bathroom scale to weigh two of them. 65.4 lbs and 64.2 lbs. So the average is right around the advertised 64.8 lbs BFGoodrich claims. I'm happy with that

Nice. So the D load rated are 71lbs for a drop of 6lbs per tire moving to the C rated?

Checking my stats and math :p

D rated bfgs spec at 69lbs

very light for a 37 so these are about 5lbs lighter

 

[TJP]

Sweet. Wonder how that will translate to performance etc.
