Just like Methods backspacing

I clear 37s no problem with just a RPG 3" collar and a little trimming.

Wheel width, offset, and tire choice make a very big difference when trying to get 37's to fit.

I’m still doing my research on whether I want to make the jump to 37’s. Has anyone tried 37’s on the factory beadlock wheels? I’m thinking it MAY fit if you add caster to the front alignment.

I think they might fit. I have the base wheels but will be trying to fit 37s when my tires wear out. Also have ICON 1.5” leveling kit. Measured just over 2” from tire to fender on 35s so 37s ought to fit. Fingers crossed

Hopefully he’ll chime in. I’d like to hear what he did to make it fit. Based on the weight difference between the K02 and the Nitto Ridge Grabblers, I’m going to stick with the K02. I’m also trying to minimize the increase in rotational mass during the process.

Glad someone said it before me. But offset has a lot to do with it.

i really just need to clarify it is NOT the tire thats causing you turds to rub. its the wheel offset.


shit this stuff is like kindergarten.

Here is an updated pic with the 38x13.5 20 and diberti fenders. Yes, if you plan to play with it off-road, fenders are needed.

If you decide to cut then shoot me DM and I can send or post pics of where to cut.
