Default Show your 37's on 2.5' Lift

I'm looking to buy 37x12.50/18 Nitto G2 or 37 Yokohama Geolander AT-S, and I'm undecided. Currently I have a 2.5" TF coil lift. Will these fit my JKU?
Please post pics as it will help with my decision.

Thanks!

Rock Krawler 2.5" Stock Mod with 17x8 XD Bullys wrapped in 37x12.50-17 Trail Grapplers. For a 2.5" lift, you have to run flat flares, though. Either cut, or Poison Spyder, Genright, Metal Cloak, EVO, etc.

Even if I were to install a 1" body lift? I kinda like the factory flares (stock look).

Nah, I think if you install a 1" body lift, you should probably be okay with the factory flares. You'll still want to trim the rear pinch seams though so you don't slice up your tires like I have. Be sure to add bump stop accordingly, too.

Thanks, man! Needs some TLC right now....i.e. paint work, hood replaced, dents in the windshield frame filled, etc. TMD cowl hood has been sitting in my garage for well over a year. Gotta get closed on my new house first.

Ok thanks for info, its quite helpful.

One quick question though, what's the largest tires we can run on a stock 16" steel rims? I was thinking of using my original wheels, only to have the more meat look

Sweet jeeps guys! Question, do you both have 44s up for or are you on a 30? And what gears are you running? 3.8 or 3.6? Auto or manny?
