Default 36 inch tires

Hey guys,

Tire manufacturers don't seem to make many products in the 36 inch size. It's odd seeing as they regularly produce both 37 and 38 inch tires. Anyway, I'm considering a lift that allows 37 inch tires, but they look a little too full in the well. What brands make 36 inch sizes?

Thanks!
Micah

A lot of companies make 35's or 37's that measure 36". If you decide on a rim size you can narrow it further.

Default goodluck

there are not alot of tires out there for a 36" the 37" KM2 will come in at 35.8. that would be my suggestion. and they are an easier tire to get.

Our M16's which list as 37's are actually in the 36" range.
