very, very sorry... please allow me to correct myself: "all 37's run a bit small, and so do BFG's".My opinion is they (KO2) don't run small, look at the specs on all other brands and tell me who makes true 37" tires? You need to check the specs on the manufacturers website, not just listen what people say, people lie.. Curious what you find.
Yes, please provide feedback and then what do you recommend
thanks for the information was going to go 3.0 all around and running 37’s.This is a common question that's been answered. RPG 2.25 (x4) will affect your ride, I have that setup on 37's. It's not bad, but you will lose the cushy ride.
I'm doing it as a stop gap until I can get a mid-travel or a long travel suspension. It may never happen, but about 4k miles on the 37's and RPG perch collars, I am still pleased with the lessor ride quality of the RPG, perch colors and the 37s. It's still a daily driver, and I think the wife likes driving it more now.
My goal was to keep a stock looking Bronco (proportion wise), My brother and closest friends didn't even notice when I put the 37s and the 2-in lift. It just looks beefier and more stout now.
Go for it, I would again
I went 2.25 all the way around because the weight of the spare tire and the weight of my RTR rear end stuff weighs down the rear end. My Bronco is leveled out in its current state, once I add a front winch, then the rear end might be a little higher.
BFG's run small. Swapped out the factory set for a set of Falken Wildpeaks and they are physically bigger even though both are listed as 37x12.50.My opinion is they (KO2) don't run small, look at the specs on all other brands and tell me who makes true 37" tires? You need to check the specs on the manufacturers website, not just listen what people say, people lie.
I kind of agree, but what about the fact that by adding weight on either the front or the back with say a winch, bumpers /roof rack etc will make the car to either squat or lean forward.
I mean yeah I guess lots of weight for legit overlander setups could be a reason to swap but obviously you are going to downgrade normal ride quality drastically with whatever you do. To me it’s not worth having all the junk that adds weight all the time. If I’m not going out on a long trip I’m not keeping it on my vehicle.
you're only talking about 5/32" (.15") difference? You got me. My old eyes can't see much difference looking at them.
This. You dont need a full set of kings/fox 2.5 for a lift that will run you $5-7k all said and done. There are other option just like the eibachs or billstins that will give you the lift you want. With proper parts (not compromising stock parts) for under $2k all said and done. But yes if your realllllllly on a budget then hockey pucks could work. It will give you the lift. Just seems odd to me. At that point just save up for three month and get the eibachs/billstiens. Hockey pucks = Like asking someone to wear stilts but still run as fast as without the stilts. Yah your taller but…to each there own. Everyone has different circumstances and limitations so I cannot judge. And some will never take these offroad and just want the lift. Thats fine. So I get it.
