did you add a spare, and if so does it fit underneath?

No. And not sure.
Following your steps and ordered the KO3s same size. What tire pressure did you settle?

32-33. Quite a bit of difference between 35-37 and 32-33. Softer ride.
Uh...isn't that too low? This calculator says 40psi and that would be my guess too. Harsher ride for sure.

I ran 37 inch tires on 8.5 inch rims on a previous jeep. 25psi. Did 15k miles on those BFG km3's, used the soap/chalk method to determine tire patch. I suppose it was t recommended, but I did multiple 500+mile highway trips like that, things went fine. Probably only by the grace of God 
I'll let you know if I've any other issues at this pressure.

First major problem:
Got the 30k service done last week, with the extra fluid changes due to heavy offroad use and a good bit of towing (transmission fluid, front and rear diffs, transfer case, oil, tire rotation, suspension and drivetrain retorque, etc.)
2 minutes after picking it up, attempted acceleration beyond a 5% throttle lead to the engine sputtering and no acceleration, and a weird shuddering sensation. Was able to turn around and limp back to the dealership.
5 days later, fixed. It was the engine airflow intake sensor, located up in the engine bay under all the black plastic. No damage, just faulty input, lead to the engine running super lean (low gas input) because the sensor told the ecu that there was very little air going in.
Been running fine since. A bit annoying. I bought a Lexus so I wouldn't have bmw/land rover/jeep electrical problems.

Sounds like the tech messed something up. Not a coincidence
Yep, very possible. Did they change the sensor? Plus 5 days to fix it? Very annoying.
Techs these days aren’t like they used to be.
I’m guessing he dealership threw in the fuel cleaning services (induction/injection/maf) and that’s where it went wrong.

Left it over the (closed) weekend, they started diagnosing Monday morning, figured it out by Monday afternoon, part took two days, picked back up Wednesday after a quick plug and play.
Not gonna lie, I just had my 30k service (at I assume the same dealership) last week and was worried they would mess something up. Luckily, everything seems fine now.
Do not get an alignment there however.
