New Raptor Load Range C 37s?

[gato]

Installed mine today on the 4xe. I have to check the tire pressure, but I was able to measure them this afternoon. It was 34 5/8"

Roughly what I got on my D rated at 30PSI from ground to highest part of the tire. (34 and 1/8 at the shoulder)

I'm surprised the Red Ruby got an extra inch on his measurement, even though he was at 24PSI - maybe the weight of the Jeep does make a bigger difference on these tires on how they measure.

Where can you even purchase 315 k02 or duratracs in c load? I only keep finding E.

I’m interested to see mine mounted. My 35” grapplers are 34 1/8, these are much taller unmounted

Same here, about 30 psi. I'll probably bump to 35 cold

What are the original tires on the right?

Sweet I really think these tires will be the perfect fit for my 392. I am totally sold. Let me know how you like them.

Wait, what? Your 37" tire only measure out at 34 5/8"??? That cannot be correct.

I will get a shot with old tires mounted compared to new tires and wheels as well on tuesday or wednesday

He is measuring them wrong if it’s the new 37” KO2. you have to take a straight edge or ruler across the middle of the tire and measure up from the ground. I have seen more then once on this new tire people run a tape measure up to just the outer tread that is not how manufacturers measure tires.

Exactly. Even though these are a bit smaller than some of the other 37‘s out there they’re not as small as people make them out to be.

I measured with a level from the top of the tire straight down the center of the wheel to the ground (on the vehicle under load). Here is a comparison of these to the stock Rubicon tires

still surprising, I would expect them to measure around 35" under a load, that is where most nominal 37s sit I believe...(ie...factory 33's run around 32", 35's around 33.5")

They should come in where the D rated ones are coming in at which is 35 3/8" or so. We'll see. I'm happy with them being more of a 36" type tire anyway.
