Looking for the various makers of a 36". 16.0" - 16.5" wheel. I know about Interco, anyone else?

Has anyone tried a 36" on a TeraFlex 2.5BB and spacers?

Thank you

Something you may not have considered - H1 Hummer tires. They're called 37x12.50x16.5 but probably aren't quite that tall. Treadwright even retreads them and they supposedly measure out at 36.7", according to their site. And only $145.

If you decide to do 16.5's, what are you going to do for wheels?

Not really sure about the wheels. I assume your making reference to the odd size? I came up with 16.5 as that is what Interco is showing for their 36's. Right now I just need to find who is making (other then interco) a 36.

I have the Sahara 18's now and want to drop down. 17's could work. This is the style I am interested in. Kind of an old style American Racing wheel.

I could go with 37's if there is anything out there that could simply add an 1" to my current lift mentioned above. I have been off this forum for a while and out of touch in regard to whats available these days

36's seem to be an odd ball size nowadays. BFG makes the KM 2 in a 345/75r16. https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...-this-size-yet Not too many choices tho.

I love my set up which is similar to what Planman suggested and it works VERY well.

Thanks for the input on this

Along with that..... MOST 16.5" rims are made specifically for load range E tires and lack the safety bead of passenger car rims. (with the exception being ugly stock steel 6-7" rims) So, unless you are going to run beadlocks inside and outside on the rim, you can forget about running them less than the specified 75-80 psi. Otherwise you risk dismounting them. You'll also have a hard time with the bolt pattern in that size. Most are 8lug.
