I'm thinking about going with 37x14.50 15 on 15x10 wheels with 4" back spacing. I'm running 2.5 rock krawler lift with 2.5 tera flex bump stops and Smitty built xrc fenders. My question is. Will I rub the control arms or have other issues. The wheels are on a jk now, so I'm nor worried about this issues. Just the size of the tire.







I added some pics to give you an idea what I'm working with.

im not 100% sure but Im guessing it will rub and you will also have to trim a bit...im guessing there a good deal and thats why your looking to get them?

It is a good deal and I have trimmed the rear pinch seams(front and back). I have not trimmed the front but looks like the front has good clearance. I have 35's now and I tried to make sure I had 2"s everywhere. Just wondering if anyone has experience with these tires. They're slot eider than anything I have ran before.

You will not need to trim the front however with that backspaciing you will rub the frame at full lock turn. You need 3.5 inches or less backspacing or put some washers in your steering stops

Thanks for the link. That gives me a good idea of what I need to do with the pinch seams.

That was what I was worried about. Will the washers kill my turning radius or just a minor adjustment?

I run 37s with a 4 inch lift with no problems. I just had to trim the rear pinch seams. We used a forklift (front and back) to see if anything rubs... tiny bit, but nothing that requires modification. I think with anything less than 4, I would have needed additional changes to make it work.

but his are 14.5" wide are yours? thats a big difference.

Those are crazy wide for a jeep. I'm guessing your not planning on wheeling it???
