Default Help me choose betwen 35 or 37 MT/R Kevlar

I have a 08 Unlimited rubicon with a 3.5 in lift coming and try to decide if I want 35 or 37's. I have to do a fair amount of driving for work so not sure if 37's will bleed me dry but I love the look. Help me decide.

If the thought of 37's enters your mind and you have the appropiate funds, just do it and don't look back! I'm going up to 37's after these tires are done and throwing a d60 underneath

You will want the 37's. Unlimiteds look so right with them.

As many have said before if your trying to decide between two sizes, go with the larger, youll thank yourself within a week vs. kicking yourself for not getting the 37's. I got 33's thinkin id be ok with them, now i cant wait for them to wear out so i can jump to the 37's. Just Do It.

I went with 37's. Don't regret it one bit. I did regear however and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be happy if I didn't. 5.13's feel great. Feels like more power then stock rubicon setup. I went through the same debacle. Glad I went higher. My 2 cents.

About a 4" lift. Still had to trim the rear fenders, rear bumper, and front bumper. Front fenders were fine.

I did the same thing I went with 35s and now I wished that I went 37s or 40s. I will regear when I go bigger in time.
