Let’s see your 37’s on your JKU

RageKage · Jun 3, 2018

Almost all will say my 6 1/2” lift is overkill for 37’s, and they’re right. There’s a lot of space between the tires and fenders but I like it. At full stuff the tires barely touch the wheel wells if at all, which is what I wanted.

I have 4.5” AEV springs. My front fenders rub at full stuff and are on their last legs. But, I do love the way they look with Full OEM fenders. Down the road if I do replace them, I like the nemesis fenders.

I guess with 3.5” coils it probably will not work out...

Doubtful. I have 4.5” coils in the rear and don’t seem to have much rubbing. Front was another story. I found some 6” front coils on CL and swapped them in. No more rubbing and it also leveled the Jeep. If I had trimmed or aftermarket fenders, a 3” rear / 4.5” front set up would work with 37s.

I will probably end up trimming my fenders or some aftermarket fenders

Then your 3.5” coils probably would work.

Trimmed fenders and 3.5" def work and no rubbing. You may have to trim your rear pinch seam a little but that's no big deal.

I run 4:88s which has been great as a daily driver and still low enough for the rocks. It’s keeps me just under 3,000 rpms at 76-77 mph.

Hey man... just for reference, can you throw up a pic of your rig on 35’s with those same wheels...

Yeah no problem. Here at a few from when I was still running 35x12.50 Nittos and then a picture of the day I mounted my 37x13.50 cooper STT pro’s before I trimmed the fenders.

Same exact suspension setup with the exception of shocks. Chopping the flares made a world of difference.

Just to clarify to those with taller lifts, the height of the springs doesn't effect rubbing at full stuff. That's your bump stop length. I'm on 3" plush rides with cut fenders, chopped the pinch seams and have no rubbing front or rear. Taller springs have a higher ride height between your suspension limits (bump stop and shock length).
