37’s... Anyone crazy enough?

Joined the club hehe

 

Dam, looks great!!
Is it the angle of the pic or does the rear tire have almost zero clearance? Almost looks like it’s pushed forward a bit.

 

@In4aride just in case someone hasnt done it yet

 

It is tighter there, there’s about a 1.5” gap. But that’s how fiberwerx designed those bedsides?

So far I only did the Alpine Designs cab mount relocate and hammered the wheel well where the cab mount is back about an inch, so for now, good enough for mall crawling lol
I’ll do a lot more trimming/cutting/hammering all around down the road lol

 

Love it!

 

Seems like a lot of trouble just to go 37 vs 35 why even bother....ohhhhh it looks cool

 

A 37 aired down climbs over a lot more a lot easier than a 35

You’d be surprised

not to mention
Clearance
More sidewall
A tiny bit of additional lift

dozens of benefits
But equal amount of cons
At least on a Tacoma

 

Some people use their trucks. Not meaning to be a dick, but 37s will get you a lot of places that 35s might, but the ease and comfort in doing those trails on 37s compared to 35s is tough to describe to those that don’t get it or haven’t been there.

 

So looks.

 

There are a lot of pros and cons to going that big, but to the people that get it, the pros of 37s are huge.

That being said, I’m doing 35s next. Reason? Because those cons I mentioned earlier for me are still pretty heavy. But by the time I get about half way through those 35s, I’m going to go to Mikes house and let him show me what I need to tickle and massage to clear the 37s and then I’m going to slap them on and enjoy the shit out of them.

I would say that will be the end as I bought this truck to be a camping rig and to never exceed 33s, but yeah, that ain’t happening.

 

Are we really to believe about an inch is all the difference in really “using” your truck off road. It’s ok to be about looks. So if 37s allow so much kick ass why stop there 38s, 40s... again I’m ok with the for looks thing my truck with 6” lift and 35s has never seen any off road action, just not believing 35-37 is much of a difference...it’s literally about an inch difference. It’s ok to just say damn them 37s LOOK badass on that Tacoma vs (pushes nerd glasses up on nose) well technically speaking with 37s you can cross clear more linear obstacles and multiverse terrain as opposed to 35s blah,blah,blah

 

Plus speed
I can go wayyyy harder on rough ass terrain on 37’s than I can on 35’s

37’s will go over a ton of blems in the road

35’s will go in them

not to mention 37’s are usually
37x13.50R17 or R16

Vs 35’s are usually
35x12.50R17

not to mention the options in most tire distributors inventory on 35’s is just
ABC and D
And that’s what you get
But man
37’s are like custom fucking tires sometimes

you can find 37’s at 90% of distributors in a million different varieties

not to mention
37 and up allows for Baja all terrains
and a couple other options that BFG won’t make for smaller sizes


Only catch on the Tacoma is the rack
And how much you can clear before you’re too close to your doors

 

Holmes. What speed are you really going to hit this obstacle with?

 

Bro
You know me

though
You haven’t been on IG lately haha

Go look at the build thread hahahaha

 

I well snap a picture of a gen 1 in town with 40 inch tires

 

I didn’t feel like typing all of that because there’s always people that says why this and why that blah blah blah.

My answer to them is who tf cares? It’s my truck and my money I do wtf I want. YOLO

 

I mean at a certain point the only big issue on going bigger in tires just comes down to axels and the rack and how long they last

everything else is just cutting haha

 

Lol yea. The rack is my next upgrade

 

There is your answer right there.
