Serious question for those of you running 37" KO2's...
Does your rig require less modification since they run small? For example, could a Cruiser built to run 35's, stuff 37" KO2's under it fairly easily? I only ask for my own curiosity.

Yes, taller and wider is more challenging to fit, so a big 35" is less challenging than a 37". Why would anyone want to pay for a tire that is marked/priced as a larger tire than it is?
I didn’t pay for mine.
Personally, I don't plan to fit 37's onto my LX, but I was curious to people's experiences. Mostly because this is a 37+ thread, and some of the tires are closer to 35's.
My toyo rt's are a 315/75/16 and the specs said they were 34.6 but the tape says they are only 33.375". No wonder my mpg's went up lol
Took long enough, but finally pulled the trigger.
Setup is as follows:
- OME J's all around
- 4.88 gears
- Caster plates
- 1" Roger Brown body lift
- Stock bump stops
- 1.25" Trail Gear spacers
- FJCruiser steelies
- 37x12.5r17 Cooper STT Pro's
- So far, no rubbing at full flex that i could find
Road manners are very good in my opinion for what the tires are, and could possibly be improved with a fresh steering box. 4.88's are sufficient to move the truck still but granted I'm not climbing any mountain passes.

No problem climbing long hills even with my 4 Liter, heavy beadlock wheels 4.88 end full armors
Couple recent pics. Water ended up to the tops of tires at one point.
Girl was lookin thicc yesterday. 
Out wheeling yesterday.
what are the steelies off of? im really digging the factory steel look.
16's or 17's?
Out wheeling this past weekend also.
16" wheel off a 2000 tacoma. The tundra steel wheels of same vintage have 16 round holes where mine from a tacoma have 2 oblong holes and 14 regular holes. Tundras look abit better IMO.

Cruisin’
17s of an FJCruiser.
A bit more rubbing then I had before but am a victim of 12yr/150k old springs and shocks and perhaps a taller profile tire.
Nice. I just bought new 37x12.50 16's recently so I may go this route.
Are you running spacers?
