You’re one of the few Jeep TH-camr who has a two door Jeep. Definitely love seeing the Jeep! Looks great on 35s
Appreciate it dude! Thanks for watching!
You may recall, my 2021 Rubi 2Dr arrived a month ago. First upgrade was a RH4x4 Patriot Mid Width front aluminum bumper & recessed Warn 10S winch. This combo permits RV Tow from frame end mounted rings and this eliminates a low mounted setup, like RoadMaster’s solution. Then swapped the stock wheels & 33” BFG KO2’s for titanium 17x8.5 ICON Rebounds & a set of 35x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. The titanium & Billet Silver combo looks great and these tires do not hold onto pebbles as much as the KO2’s AT tread. The 4.5” offset -6 wheels give a slightly more aggressive stance without sticking out too far (maybe an inch). Decided against the bead lock wheel weight and mounting hassle after talking to local Jeep Club members who do not run them & regularly go down to 15 PSI. Selling the almost new OEM wheels and tires on CL paid for the wheels. Surprisingly, these new “hybrid” MT tires ride noticeably smoother and just as quiet as the original KO2’s. Maybe the wider rims have something to do with that. This Jeep is towed behind an RV & is not a daily driver, so looking forward to having them a long time. Will wait on adding a small lift to see if rubbing occurs. For now, I love the hunkered down “puppy with big paws” look. Have a feeling you’re gonna wonder why you didn’t go “bigger” sooner.
I just put 315/70 and by fully stearing there some rubbing specially when I stear left! Nice video 🎉
So I got my Jeep last year (2019 Rubicon) and im thinking of going bigger. This really helped. It only has about 9k miles on it but I think imma do what you did and switch the stock tires for the 35s with no lift. And of course add side steps since my baby didn’t come with any🥴
Looking great Dakota!!! FYI there is a Ford Bronco "Test ground" track being build off SH 71 near Marble Falls.
Hmm interesting 🤔🤔🤔 haha I’ll have to look at that! I went up there today and wasn’t even paying attention
@@drivenmad2089 It's just South of Horseshoe Bay. It's still under construction.
I just bought a 2 door Rubicon (2021) with a manual and love it. I’ve been watching all your videos and appreciate the content! Are you planning on the recommended molar 2 inch lift? I’ve heard good and bad about it. Look forward to seeing the follow up for the 35s.
Congrats on the new Jeep dude! And I’m not sure. I go back and fourth between the Mopar lift or a full blown Metal Cloak 2.5” lift. Like you I’ve heard mixed reviews on the Mopar lift. If I get a bunch of rubbing, then the “quick slightly less expensive fix” would be to go with the Mopar lift. We’ll have to see.
Thanks for watching!
I like the 2 door JL. They're real Jeeps. Not much for 4 door Jeeps. Feels like 4 Wheeling with a bus.
Like a minivan with no doors
Nice to see 35s on a stock 2 door. I while probably do that as well, but not right away. I will be very interested in your gas mileage before and after the tire change.
Stay tuned dude! I’ll do a full on road driving impression once I’ve put some miles on em👍🏻 thanks for watching!
... I have also 2D JL and I looove the way it drives on the highway at 80mph+ , can't wait to hear what you say in regards to how different it drives !!!
Stay tuned man! Gonna have those videos up soon! Thanks for watching!
Looks good,
Did you run your original KO2's until these new ones? I've been considering doing the exact same with 35 Ko2s on my Rubicon - when my original tires go. Also use mine as a daily driver + off-roading so can't wait for the update!
Yep ran the stock tires right up to 36+ thousand miles. Probably had another 10 i know them. So we’ll see how these do off-road. Should be doing that this weekend👍🏻
Awesome jeep
Thanks man!
I have that same jeep except im running a dynatrac endurosport lift and the 315 k02s does awsome on road and off.
How’s the endurosport lift? I’m probably not going to lift it super quick but eventually it’ll get something to cope with some of the trips I’m planning for it and the B-Ronco.
Thanks for watching!
@@drivenmad2089 Im happy with it rides as good if not better then stock. I have an order for a 392 if that works out ill be selling the lift for cheap or maybe donate idk.
@@Michael_ryan91 Gotcha. I’ll have to put that one on the list. And that 392 is going to be wild man! Very tempting for sure!
They look good. What about the brakes can they handle the bigger mass and weight ? And I see some people have to do some changes to the speedometer when they go bigger.
So far so good. Gonna go in depth on all that when I do the road portion of the update 👍🏻
Very new to the offroad/lifting and planning to get a 2 door jeep in a few months. Since the tires adds a slight lift to the car, are other suspension mods needed as well since the geometry is getting changed from factory? Thanks for the video!
Nope. you don’t have to add anything else. If you just add 35’s on stock suspension with a rubicon model you’re good. If you want to add larger tires than 35’s then more work will need to be done. I also made a updated video with my 392 wrangler as well if you want to check that out
Thanks for watching!
Do you have any snow in your area and did you consider Duratracs? I've been considering 315/70/17 Duratracs recently for my 2018 JLU recently. I never really liked my stock KO2's in the rain or snow and heard good things about the Duratracs.
I don’t get snow where I am. But I’ve never had any issues with the KO2’s in rain. And I though about the first race briefly but they are louder on road and the sidewalls are not as tough from what I’ve seen/heard. They’re probably better in mud though
Nice. Are you planning on doing any events (Easter Jeep Safari or a Jeep Jamboree)? Or just staying local to do your off roading?
I’d love to go to Easter Jeep safari! Definitely want to get out of TX and hit up some better trails in Colorado, Moab, Arizona, Cali etc. work just gets in the way 😂
@@drivenmad2089 I’m in CO, planning to go to EJS this year and a Missouri JJ (I think it is in June).
I thought with adding 35s you would have to change your wheel as well. I didn’t think that the 35s would still fit on your original wheels. Good choice sticking with the ko2s like you my rubicon is my daily vehicle to and from work , and I try to go off road once a month with it, and the ko2s are a good tire, I have only 7000 miles on mine so I have loads of tire life left. Also Happy Thanksgiving
Yeah technically they say you need a 8” width wheel but 7.5” will do the job. If I was to go full 35X12.5 then it probably wouldn’t be a good idea. Which is why I went for the 315 “35” so I wouldn’t then also have to drop $1,500-$2,000 on new wheels haha. I’m super happy with the KO2’s. Some people consider it a “boring” choice but it works great off-road and it’s great when you go on a 9 hour road trip. Happy thanks giving to you too 👍🏻
Well on 34.6's but don't get me wrong its the same size thats factory on my raptor and they work great, and by far the savings to go down .4 of an inch here in canada is $100 a tire
Yep. If I had gone full 35x12.5 then a lot of places won’t mount the tire on the stock wheel because they call for a 8.5-9” width wheel and the stock is 7.5”.
Thanks for watching!
What about Speedo and Turn radius?
I know this is an old video but I’m thinking about doing the same thing on my 2018 Rubicon. Mine is a 2.0L with automatic transmission, the only thing I’m worried about is if it will mess up the shift points and maybe not go into 8th gear at all on the hwy. Any thoughts?
I mean being that they are heavier tires the vehicle will have to work a little harder but it will still go into 8th gear. Going up hills it might down shift more than it used to, maybe an extra gear or too but it won’t be anything super crazy. Just make sure to get a C-class load rating which will be much lighter than a E-class load rating.
Did you have to make any adjustments to your speedometer to account for the larger tires?
They did that where I got them installed 👍🏻
Did you have these installed on the original rims? Who installed them for you? Some places won't put 35's on the stock rim...not wide enough.
Took it to the dealer and everything went smoothly. I Did later add new wheels with a different offset and wider but that was just for Looks not because the tires in stock wheels felt bad.
Thanks for watching!
You’re installing 33’s right, not 35’s? Tires listed as 35 usually run a little short, but not a full 2-inches.
You should of got the D load tires. They weigh less and air down better.
Question ... I purchased 35 inch tires 12.5 ...... will these fit on my stock rubicon 2021? No off reading just city cruising.
Technically yes. They recommend at least a 8 inch wheel but I ran mine in stock wheels with no issues!
Love the Jeep man! But why not go 37s? You can fit 37s on a Rubi with very little, almost no rubbing. And the Dana 44 axels can handle 37s no problem with very little missed shift points
Well the 37’s I would get would technically require new wider wheels and I wasn’t trying to drop a whole bunch of cash all at once haha not until the corvette shows up so I can budget for everything 👍🏻
@@drivenmad2089 haha okay man! Just was curious
It’s a Rubicon of course that will fit
What is your wheel size on Rubicon? 17x7.5?
Yep. Stock wheels are 17X7.5
Hi, can I order rubicon jl 2door with 35 inch tire from factory?
You can’t order 35’s from the factory at the moment. Just different style 33” tires.
Lol I want a 2 door but thinking a 4 door will be a better fit for me as I will be car camping out it the woods with it
Yeah unless you want to sleep in the passenger seat the 4 door would definitely be more comfortable if you’re going to sleep inside the vehicle.
Thanks for watching!
You could build a Jamper to extend out of your trail gate to allow room to sleep in the back 🤷♂️ all you need is some plywood and something to prop it up
@@AustinH7 yea I've heard of those before, am think bout that too
👍👍👍👍
Going to hidden falls this weekend
That's awesome! I leave at Lake LBJ
Just went today dude!
@@drivenmad2089 how was it lots of rain over here in. Houston
@@albertocorrea2117 it wasn’t bad at all dude. Hardly and standing water(which is kinda disappointing) but it sprinkled but other than that normal conditions
@@drivenmad2089 sweet
Can axels Handle those big tiers?
Yep! The rubicon comes with Dana 44’s which can easily handle the extra weight 👍🏻.
Thanks for watching!
@@drivenmad2089 cool enjoy it mate ✌️ and you help many Jeep owners ( around the world )
Those are 315’s wouldn’t 35’s have a designation like 35x20
Technically yes, but according to BFG they’re the same height. 34.4” 👍🏻
From the video it looks like you got 33" tires....
Nope. The 33’s were 285/70R17. These are definitely taller and wider. On my other video with different wheels you can tell they’re bigger and fill up the wheel arch more.
Oh my god!! Stop smashing your hands together.
