Great looking wheel/tire combo!
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.
I didn’t pay for mine.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?
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.
This is true when it comes to BFG tires. They are undersized, KO2 metric 35 or know as 315 is actually 34.6 and the KM3 in 37 is 36.5. But it is still close to 2" overall ground clearance between the two.
No problem climbing long hills even with my 4 Liter, heavy beadlock wheels 4.88 end full armorsTook 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.

what are the steelies off of? im really digging the factory steel look.Always wanted a set of these 9.00 tires. There a 255/100r16 xzl Michelin. Got a good deal on them used so through them on. There a bit loud on the highway. Haven't taken them out on the dirt yet. As far as looks go there right on. I'm hoping they perform at least somewhat decent in the dirt. They measure the same height as my 37" stt pros.

Nice. I just bought new 37x12.50 16's recently so I may go this route.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.
