you have to remember they are 13.5 inch wide tires, and they really are that wide. if you put them on a narrow rim like an 8 or 9 inch rim, they will be a little bubly and hence ride taller

i also hope you are not planning on riding with these tires on the street, i once drove mine to the trail for about 50 miles, and it was hot outside(in the 90s) by the time i go to the trail, the compound was peeling off, these arent meant for street driving period

 

it sure sounds like you had a set of 37 red dot krawlers.
there are a couple guys i know with like 10 thousand miles on them
they will definatly not wear out in 50 miles.
red dots would.

 

okay according to bfg and to tirerack, they are actually not as tall as the 35 1250 15 bfg kms i have now. well if anyone has krawlers please measure them, and let me know

 

no i had the 35 inch blue labels

the 35's only come in blue labels
im pretty sure BFG hasnt modified the compound in the blue labels
i never sead they wore out in 50 miles, i just said after 50 miles of continuous highway driving they were noticably wearing
much better tire options out there for double duty, the Krawler is not a street tire

if i remember correctly the 35 inch krawler on an 8 inch rim measured around a 35.5 inches on the ground with the full weight of the jeep at street pressure of 25psi
the same wheels with the same Jeep had 35 inch MT/r's and 35 inch KM's both of which measured 33.5-.6 inches, again this was 4 years ago so my numbers could by slightly off but not by much
i know someone on the forum had the 37 inch KM2's measured at 35.5 on the Jeep

 

okay,
my jeep has 2000 miles on it its a little over a year old., its almost strictly a trail rig anyway. im willing to try crawlers after seeing them in action.
ill certainly heed your advice about really hot days, and longer trips....
i just havent seen any jks with crawlers around here, and i had the oppertunity to buy them right, so ill try them
if i need a body lift, ill do it.

 

dont get me wrong

the krawlers are an amazin tire, you will not have any regrets.

if i could get away with them i would have them, but i do just too much highway driving

please post some pictures when you get them on

 

i cant wait to get it done and show it off!!!!!

 

I should have my OME lift on this weekend. I also have a 1" BL. I'll have my 35 KM2's on next week. I should have plenty of room according to what I've read.

 

cool swampdonkey show me your pics!
i got 3 krawlers and my ome today the ups guy was amazed at my tires, he couldnt believe they were for a jeep.....
im thinking im going to do a body lift too so ill have full stuffage.
so im looking forward to seeing yours.

 

okay they are on. i gained about 11/2 front and rear from the ome, so it lifted my jeep around 4 inches( i removed the 2.5 tfbb), the krawlers look great on the 15x8 soft 8s
i flexed it a lot disconnected, and it didnt hit, we will se on the trails.
they are a true 35 inches tall, and a full 13.50wide, they look good, ill post pics tommorow
