37s on stock wheels?
Ok, so I get my truck next week. Thinking about going with 37s but I really love the stock Rubicon Hard Rock wheels. Is anybody running spacers on them and making it work? Light wheeling, nothing insane.

I run Nitto 37s on stock Rubi rims w/ 1.5" spacers. There is some rubbing at full turn on both the control arm and my shock reservoir (I am running King 2.5s)

Looks awesome. Any issue with breaking a bead? How wide did you go?

I've been running 37's on the stock wheels for a couple years now. No real issues. Had some minor rubbing on the frame and the plastic of the grill on full stuff when turning but I adjusted the steering stops a little and now I have zero issues. I normally run between 8 and 10 psi during normal wheeling conditions and will go as low as 5 psi in soft snow when I'm trying to float on top. This picture, the fronts are about 8 psi and the rears are between 6.5 and 7 psi.

Running BFG km2 37'a on stock 10A rims. 1.5" rough country spacers, minor rubbing on frame at full lock. I had rubbing at full stuff and turn with my manual discos so I switched to a rubi swaybar with EVO no limits disco. With the rubi rims and spacer I am 1" narrow in every wheel well. Compared to my steelies.
For snow I air down to 10psi and in summer I'll go down to 15psi. No blown beads but I wheel fairly cautious, hope this helps :) |

I have 2 sets of tires, one set is stock wheels with 37's. Like another has said, they rub on the control arms a little at full lock. I go the spider tacks wheel spacers.
I think its a great way to go, you can save some money unless you get some cheap rims? Attachment 598032 |
I ran the stock wheels with spidertrax 1 1/2 spacers and 37's for 1 1/2 years. It works but I think it handles better since I went to a wider wheel with better (3 1/2) backspacing.

I have 5k miles on my setup, no problems. Relevant info from sig is RK 2.5 lift, 37x12.5" Nitto MTs, 1.75" Spidertrax spacers. Two washers under each turning stop and no rubbing at full lock either way. Still need to adjust suspension bumpstops. Front bumper is cut, rear bumper is removed, and pinch seams are trimmed--rock rails, too.
