I see a lot of people who advised against 35X12.50 on the 7.5 inch wide stocks. Has anyone had any issues or concerns with airing down? I use my JK on the beach a lot and don't want any issues if I'm upgrading to 35's on my 18 inch sahara wheels. Thanks. BTW, I am loving all these 35's with stock wheels.

Thanks!
Thanks for all of the input guys. I ended up going with the 315/70/17 Duratracs cause it is a DD. I will post pictures as soon as I get the 4"er and the new tires on.

I believe you can google "wrangler gearing wheel size chart" and it will give you a range of options.

If you are looking to upgrade to 35" tires, I would definitely recommend regearing. The ideal gears for 35" tires are 4.11-4.88. With a 3.21, you will go from 0-60 by sunday afternoon. It may not even be enough power to make it up an incline without pushing your foot through the floor and going flinstone style. Definitely look into regearing for that increase of size and weight of a tire. Hate to be the bearer of bad news...
