Have you guys seen any issues with that gear and the 35s?
How's the tailgate hold up to that combo?
how's the mpg been? Lol


90% regular driving, 10% off road

Will b running spacers and 2.5 coil lift


Thanks

Not sure if I'd go to the 315's but maybe someone with this gearing setup can comment.
I would not put a tire of this size on the tailgate. 1. It doesn't fit with the third brake light 2. it's heavy. My wifes 33's barely fit and were heavy. Might want to look at a bumper then tires.
My driving habits are the same 90/10. MPG's didn't really change much. A Rubi has lower gearrs so it's not great anyway. Still getting around 18/19 mpg.

I just put 35's on my 2012 with 3.21s. Honestly.. It's really not that bad. Way better than my 07 with 4.10s. I haven't got my procal yet, and haven't burned a whole tank of gas since I got them installed. My computer is showing 15 mpg. No idea if it is accurate. I'm going the spare, but only temporary. I will be ordering a bumper and tire carrier soon.

Will 35s fit on the stock rear bumper?

Nice! Wheel spacers on those?

RacerXS 08-27-2012 03:58 AM

Yes, 1-1/2" spacers.

The stock 17, or 18's are IMO some of the best looking wheels for the JK......not sure why so many are so quick to ditch them.
Great thread!!!

I like it! Rig looks awesome as well.:thumbsup:

Did you paint them with the wheels on?

Want to do this but not a big fan of spacers
