Any clearance problems with the 37 tires and front bumper?

I’ve seen others post the same setup as what I’m doing but I will let you know since I do not have the steel bumper package.

Talked to the service manager today about 35 or 37 and warranty. As long as I don't damage the part off road warranty will be no problem on either size.

Has anyone ran 37s without any lift or B.B. yet? I am buying the new tires from the dealership and having them installed before I pick it up. I had planned on 35s, but I am now rethinking and debating going to a 37 with a Rock Krawler 2.5 lift (instead of Mopar).

But, I will need to drive my Rubicon home from AR to MO with whatever tires I have put on. So will need to drive highway on the way home and not sure the 37s will fit.

I may just go 35s from them, and do a separate set of wheels and tires with 37s if I can’t confirm one way or another. I never planned for 37s as my daily tire, it the more I see, and read how well the JLUR handles them I am coming around to the thought.

It shouldn’t be an issue driving it home. Just go easy.

I think it was around March, somewhere on JL forums, they showed a Ruby w/o lift kit with 37" tires. As long as you're not disconnecting your sway bars & doing some serious 4 wheeling on the way home, you won't have any problem.

Yes you can do that but I have the Mopar 2 inch lift kit which lift it 3 with 37's I would not do that now but I was going to but I'm so glad I didnt. I did the Mopar 2 with 37s it just doesn't look right without the lift kit with 37's in my opinion but anyody can do what they want. I really like the way mine looks and it rides like stock

Mopar lift with 37s. No rubbing only had to use a heat gun in the rear fender to push the indentation back.

Yes if you're doing some serious off-roading you might want to push that in after you heat it with a heat gun just a little. Without the lift if you do some serious off-roading you're going to have more problems than that. I just like more wheel well then not

Found that out the hard way. Ended up using a wire tie to pull it back until I got home. No big deal, but the sound it makes is freaking annoying...almost as bad as the jet engine fan. LOL
