35s or 37s…?

[brycedan]

I just got mine back from the shop yesterday. I did the Eibach Stage 2 lift, and put BFG 37x12.5. It looks so much better than the stock 33s!

Look at the first link with all the pics 37s just completely change the look but thats no lift once you add the lift its actually harder to see the difference due to you are further from the finders. Now I have 1 3/8s front and 1in rear lift and 38s the level of clean now is on another level. Lets keep in mind I have Sasquatch so you 2in is about the same as my 1 3/8s lift but 38s take some extra work.

I’m biased towards 37s.

BF Goodrich KM3s are small 37s. Think about this 37x13.50 KM3 is a 81.4lb tire, E-10 Ply, max load 3195lbs where as a 35x12.50 Nitto Trail Grappler is a 79.9 lbs tire, E-10 Ply, and a max load rating of 3195lbs. I even looked up the true size and BFG KMR is 36.5X13.6 and the Nitto Trail Grappler is 34.85X13.19. How do you make sense of only a 1.5lb weight difference on these tires.

I ran Nittos on my TRX. I could never keep them balanced. Because of this, I refused to put them on my Bronco. 18,000 mile on them and they’ve never required a rebalance. The Nittos were back at a tire shop every 3-4 months. I found it extremely annoying. As far as weight goes, they are two totally different compounds. The KM3s remain soft and pliable in cold temps. The Nittos get rock hard.

My non sas Badlands has 34's and it does just fine off-road. I take it off-roading once or twice a month so it's not a mall build..

I think you'd be fine with 35's..

Why stop at 37’s? Go 40!

That was the one I was looking for. You guys never disappoint
