I have the goodyear mtr/k and they are bigger than the km2. I have also seen that the nitto mud grappler runs bigger. Some tires are more ture to size. You might want to look around and find a bigger 35. look for goodyear, pit bull, interco, ot nitto. I know those brands run bigger.

I dont have pics with the mtrs tho. My first set was bighorns and they were smaller than my mtr's before I even mounted them. I had a new mtr beside a new bighorn on wheels beside eachother and they were half an inch bigger than the bighorn. I didnt check the difference after I mounted them. I think the weight rating on the sidewalls plays into it as well.

I am already sleeved and gusseted up front. I have km2 35's so they are a little smaller. My major predicament is that if I get the lift and don't like the 35's then I have to get aev's larger bumpstops and tear the lift apart then put those in. I'm not worried about my axle. If it breaks then I'll do a pro rock. If I stay 35's I can do the arb bumper that I love tho. And if I go to 37's I have to do a stubby front. Kent from aev just built a 2dr on 3.5 with 4.5 bumpstops on 37's for a customer. It looked huge!
What's the issue with the ARB and 37's? I run the LoD full width and 37's.
