37x13.50r17 tires???

[Oldhippie]

Wheels just arrived (icon recon pro 17x8.5, 0 offset, 20% sale) so it is time to actually get 37” tires…I like bigger footprints and 13.50s have more than 12.50s but I don’t see folks running 13.50s on broncos? Why?…will they fit without rubbing? …I have a big bend Sasquatch with zone 3” lift, JKS clearance kit & RC rack bushings…was planing Yokohama Geolandar MT 37x12.50R17s (but willing to be swayed) if 13.50s won’t work and which 13.50s are good?(thinking Micky Thompson Baja Legend MTZ 37-13.50r17)… The reality is it will mostly see pavement miles (split my daily with model A, have wife’s suv too) but will do off roading in the dirt, sand, rocks and snow trips (I do not live in snow country but not too far to visit)…thanks

I wanted too. Run the 13.50s on my Raptor truck, but I wasn’t sure they would fit / not rub on my Bronco. Didn’t want to spend roughly $2500 on a mistake. So, I went with the 12.50s, no rubbing whatsoever. I have seen guys in here run 13.50s. Remember too, not all 37s are the same size, so take that in to account. Toyos are definitely 37”.

I like the 13.5 also. Run 37x13.5 Cooper STT. Being a little wider they do rub your front body mounts and stock rock sliders. Nothing a little trimming can’t take care of. Also I met you and your wife Friday on the snow run, Shayne in the gray 4 door. I didn’t realize it was you until seen a picture. Mitch from wildhorse also runs the 37x13.5.

Thank you! It was great to finally get out with you and the guys! Had a great time! I don’t have the factory rock sliders (JCR) and already have JKS clearance kit for the body mounts so hopefully those won’t be a issue…the MT Baja legend I’m thinking of (for D rating) are made by Cooper and very close to your SSTs (E rated)…so may go out shopping this week…guess I also need ford performance tune to change tire size and later maybe steering rack…this stuff never ends…

Well I am pretty sure you could run 37x13.50 Baja Legend MTZ with a 3 inch lift over sasquatch. Plus one thing that will help you is Baja Legend MTZ 13.50 width is actually 13.3 whereas Toyo Mud Terrains at 13.50 are actually 14.6, so not all of them are the same.

Well I hope so because I ordered the MT legends today…

Looks good. I'm running 37x13.50r17 Toyos on 17x9, +0 Vorsteiner Offroad wheels, and they ride great. I've run several sets of the Mickey MTZ, but find the Toyo rides a bit better, and don't get quite as noisy as the tread wears.
