Yes they will. You will need wheel spacers though

I'm about to be running 37s on factory Moab wheels. These are 35s. I rub the sway bar a little at full lock. Does t bother me. I don't run spacers but will with 37s

35x12.5x17 BFG KM2s on stock wheels, 1.5 rough country wheel spacers, 3.5 rock krawler lift - I can occasionally get the inside of the tire to rub on the lower control arm at full steering lock depending on suspension compression, but just enough to feel a little vibration, not enough to bind or hurt anything.

Sorry for digging up an old thread, but I want to confirm for my own sanity. I'm going to mount 35x12.5x17 Nitto Trail Grapplers to a set of Moab rims. I'm going to use 1.5" spacers and have 2.5" lift. Other than regular inspections, no one has had any issues or think this is wrong or a concern? This is my daily driver and weekend trips to the mountains, so what is recommended for a good tire pressure?

No issues at all! With the lift and spacers you'll be good to go. I have 35x12.5x18 km2's on my daily driver and I love it
