37" Nitto's on my 392 *Stock Wheels/No Lift

Shockerracing · Jun 7, 2021

I finally got around to uploading my video showing off how the Nitto Ridge Grappler 37's fit on the Wrangler 392 stock wheels with no lift. They look amazing, ride great and didn't really hurt the acceleration of the 392, but I do have some rubbing on the lower control arms at full turn, and it does rub the rear inner fender liners when I flexed it out. Let me know if you all have any questions.

12.5

I added 37 x 12.50 x17 Patagonias on stock 392 wheels .. rubbed on full turn, added 1.75 spacers .. looks great snd no rub. Rear when hit bumps and rear ends squats hits black plastics, no big deal as not metal or structual .

ride improved and boy are the Patagonias quiet !!

Just added 37x13.5r17 Yokohama Geos X-AT on 17x9 Black Rhinos. The ride is great without an added lift. Can feel some power loss but nothing significant.

Haha didn't know you were on here. Was going back and forth on colors and your video made it easy for me. Love your videos!

Factory wheels, 37" BFG KM3s - will be adding 1.25" wheel spacers to prevent any rubbing when turning but as of right now there has been no rubbing at all. Can't really tell any difference in Colorado @7700ft going from 33s to 37s. Super fun jeep, happy to have it and now its time to add the tire carrier parts and winch then its done! Wouldn't mind some powered slider steps

After owning, any update on rubbing? Also, what bracket did you use for the spare to fit? Thanks in advance! Looks great, may be adding to mine!

I added the Rustys Tire carrier recently and it’s a great carrier. Super beefy, holds up to a 40” tire, and looks great!

How about the rubbing? I'd like to not lift anymore and thinking a 35 is as big as I could go until I read your post. I go off roading maybe twice a year...

We added the wheel spacers, which stopper the rubbing.

I threw on some Yokohama Geolander 37x13.5r17 with stock lift and there is rubbing. At full lock there is still plenty of clearance.

ok, I know I'm wearing out the forum this week but say I went to factory lift with 37s...about how high is that going to raise it? My garage may be an issue...

Can the 2023 392 stock wheels (17x8) handle the nitto ridge grapplers 37x13.50R17?

I would mainly be concerned about rubbing, but I haven’t tried the 13.5’s

For my future buying purposes...how exactly has the ride quality improved? Feel less of the bumps?

Nitto says you need 8.5 inch wide wheels for 35 x 12.50. I have 35's on my 392 wheels no problem, not sure I would go up in diameter as well as width as I they specify a 9 inch wide wheel for the 37x 13.50
