front bumpe for 37s
so ive been collecting up parts soon as the weather breaks im planning on taking a weekend and rigging up my 2010 jk 4 door sahara 6speed
im planning on doing flat fenders not heart set on which yet but grabbed teraflex 2.5inch lift with bilsteins already Tera Flex JK 4-door 2.5 inch Lift Kit, W/Shocks (1251000)
and im looking into bumpers now my current concern is trying to figure out what will fit functionally with 37 inch tires with the 2.5 lift as i want a full width bumper because i like the looks and cops around here will actually pull over stubbys. im thinkin about running toyo MT 37s anyone got suggestions for a good full width front bumper that would mix will with these pieces. ive been looking at a ton but havent really heartset on any option yet

you will have interference issues with a full size bumper , 2.5" of lift and 37's. Let alone you will need flat fenders to run 37's on 2.5" of lift at a minimum and they won't look right with a full bumper imo.

You will need more like 4" to run 37's with stock flares. If you do go that high, then you can look at full width options.
Our Vanguard is high clearance and designed for little impact on tire size:

Our Crusader midwidth is slightly narrower then most, which would work in a 2" lift and 37" tire combination:

Check out the LoD Crawler. That's the route I ultimately went. Technically a stubby, but the top side extends out to a mid width. I have 37s on a 2.5" (netted 3") lift. Not even close to rubbing the bumper. It's fairly light as well and has a recessed winch opening.
Not a ton of pictures online, but in person it's pretty sweet.

well i know i need flat flares im def doing flats just havent picked a specific pair yet not that it matters much. damn thats what i was worried about with fulls rubbing on 37s i really dont want a stubby though the LOD is a possibility it at least gives a semi wider look

In my opinion, if you're running flat fenders, anything much more than a stubby doesn't look good.
As a side note, I don't own anything Jcr, but I wouldn't hesitate to buy their product. The auto industry was born in MI and Jcr is bringing it back!

also im not really worried about flex as its my daily driver and almost likely never to leave the curb but as i keep looking the stubby is starting to grow on me now to decide between bull bar or stinger
