I have 35's and 5:13's and regularly drive to Moab and on down to Albuquerque. I have NO problem keeping up with traffic and usually lead the pack with my heavy foot. There's lotsa rev in your mini van engine. If you can pull off the 37's and they are your ultimate goal, go for it. If you are worried about mileage you will be better off with 35's. 37's are bigger granted but it's not like you are kicking up to 40's from 35's. Get your tires and start saving for gears.

 

I had 4.10s and 35s for a week and it sucked!!! Before that I had 33s and they were not so bad, but the 35s were miserable to me. 5.13s and life is good. I am debating 37s, but I don't want to lose the power advantage the 5.13s gave me. I shoulda gone 5.38! lol

 

I'm with ya on that! I wonder how fast I will idle when crawling after 37's. Get 37's then I'll need a rubi transfer case or an atlas... and the list goes on....

 

thanks for the input... changing gears, who's got photos of their DD's they want to show off?

 

Another +1 for this. Mine is a daily driver and this combo works great for me. I have parked next to somebody with 37's and the 35's do not look too small at all. Go with this combo and you won't be disappointed.

 

if you go 37 on a 4" you will need stubby front and rear bumpers and also trim inner fender on rear and it will rub on the rear of the stock rocker guard on th rear tire at full stuff. go 35 if you don't want to deal with this, it is better for a daily driver. if anyone has to regear it cause they didn't go rubicon with with manual tranny. 4.10 with the stick in a rubicon is plenty for 35 or 37 if you know how to drive.

 

I have the 07 sahara with 4.11 gears and I still have 6th gear with my 35's. Honestly I havent even noticed any difference with power from my 33's to my 35's.

But I have also heard that the 315 75 16 Duratracs are light as hell!!! but I love them

 

3" OME LT lift from Northridge if it is your daily driver. It rides great and the componants are top of the line. Go with the 35"s

 

oeser, how do you like the AEV lift that is the one I was looking at getting. Is it strictly bolt in? How long was the install? What was the overall difficulty of install? Could it be done on one saturday in the driveway?

 

I drive mine everyday. 35x12.50R18 mud grappler, 18x9 ulta goliath, Teraflex 3" with flex arms, ome LT shocks, 5.13s, etc. etc.
