I'd shop around a little bit more. If I recall your looking for the RR wheels and duratracs which is exactly what I bought last fall and I paid $1900, maybe even a little less for the set of 5. I searched the internet for a few weeks until I had found the absolute lowest price which I took to some local shops and forum sponsors for a price match. At the time I bought my duratracs the 35's where hard to find, not sure if that's still the case or not.

Weird with my 4-door auto and 4:10's I did not notice any power lose. Infect I notice I had more power after adding my throttle body spacer And superchips programer. That's with 35's.

Cool regret

I would not put 35's on a daily driver. You will need to regear (my had 3.73) and your tires will wear out very quick if you drive much at all... I have 35's but mine is not a daily driver (honda civic 35 mpg !) Plus the ride is not as smooth... Buy you something cheap to drive to work,,,,then go all out!!

You should go to the 35's route because you have a Sahara... Only if your JK is for the streets you should be fine with 37's, but if you plan to play in the rocks you should be worry about how your Dana 30 will last...
