Dakota, Thanks for the honest review! Need some more camping trips!

After seeing ur few videos on this. On & off pavement with the 35s. I just did the same thing last weekend. 35x12.50 on my JL Rubicon 2 door. Gas mileage dropped for few days expectedly. Once I calibrated the speedometer and trans. Gas mileage came up. Not to mention the 35s on it made a much better look.

I love that you are doing this all incrementally because you learn so much at each stage - I will do the same. Can't wait to see the 37's / 2" lift! Maybe try new wheels with a negative offset first and see what happens?

Really good review. Keep’em coming 👍🏼

I was going to go down a similar path to with bigger tires the 35’s and bigger wheels and a 2 inch lift kit, but decided not to because for me my rubicon is still very capable as she sits .Only upgrade I did was add a winch to me is a must especially if you are off-road and by yourself on the trail . Please keep your rubicon videos coming as i always like them. I did dickey bell which is a badge of honor trail in S.C with my rubicon and got my badge of honor for doing it

Awesome.

Did you flash the computer to adjust for tires size?

I might get the 2023 4DR Rubicon soon, thinking to just get 2" spacer and 34 or 35" tyres, UHF radio , some decals and that is it. Same colour as yours, granite crystal

Bro you literally hit like every question I have about owning a 2 door jeep. Would like to see how well it tows and if it changes ride quality drastically.

Concur with all for 2021 2Dr Rubi with AT, 35” Nittos and -6 & 4.5” ICON Rebound wheels. Street ride is smoother than with stock BFG 33’s. No noticeable difference in starting out thanks to EcoBoost mini-hybrid system that was required with AT on 3.6. That combo minimizes fuel mph penalty in stop-start driving and AT compensates seamlessly when accelerating at higher speeds. One reason besides cost for not going true beadlock wheels was big sprung weight penalty and I remain convinced that decision made sense. Didn’t bother with Speedo recal since difference in tire diameters is only worth 1-2 mph. 37’s would’ve needed 2” lift to look proportional. Assume that lift affects mpg more than anything else.

Currently running MT Baja 35s 4.88 gears on my 2014 rubi 2dr and getting 14mpg.

So the weigh you refer to when at freeway speed is more of a lack of gearing. You really need 4.56 to maintain the axle/tire aspect ratio. Do you get ant rubbing at full lock?

Dude I’m putting down my order for a 2021 2 door rubicon manual in sarge green this Saturday...... keep posting the great content!

Have a 4door 2021 Rubicon. Tire shops around here tell me I need spacers to use the oem rims with 35's. Where did you get your tires?

subscribed!

Great video. I'm just about to pull the trigger on 315/70/r17 KO2s (113S C rated) and also keeping my stock wheels for my 2021 JLR 2 Door. Did you need to add spacers when you went up to 35s? Also, did you need to re-gear or did they adjust the tire rotations to match the mph? Mine is also a stick-shift so I'm wondering what is necessary and your channel has been great since you have the same vehicle! Thanks!

Another great video. 1.5 MPG loss is not too bad. I lost about that much doing the lift. Your' tag is expired LOL.

Great videos! I have been thinking about putting 35's on my 2018 JLR 2-door automatic. How much has handling been affected at 75 MPH in windy conditions? I've been driving CJ's & Wranglers since the mid-80's, so I realize handling in the wind at highway speeds isn't great. Just wondering how much worse it is. Thanks!

Big Fan of the channel and appreciate putting all the effort! I’m on the edge of ordering a 22’ with the factory 4.88 gears option. How do you think they will be with 35s? Would they be like “stock tire feel”

What are the size of the tires

Hi Dakota, Question: Does the back seat rattle when its folded up against the front seats or is there something to secure them with? (Yes I am considering getting myself one)

outside of a supercharger, what do you recommend for some better power output? I've heard a couple options, but do you think it would be the increase would be drastic enough to be worth it?

I drive up and down 3,000' over 60 miles 3+ times a week on I-17 in Arizona and I average 21.2 mpg on stock tires with the 6-speed in my 2021 2-door JLR. Actually average higher city mpg (24 ish) than highway (75 mph) likely because of the brick factor. Either way, the fuel economy is better than when I did this same drive in my old XJ, so I'm happy! Really interested in 35s (with no lift) when my factory set wear out!

Have you seen or heard about an aftermarket big brake kit for the JL?

I like your videos. What air pressure on the highway, and off road?

Still no issues with the 35s on the stock wheels? I know people do it all the time but the 7.5 width worries me a little.

Just ordered my 2021 2 door rubicon. Pretty excited. Really like your videos. What’s the exact size of these tires?

What tire pressure are you running on the road with those BFG 315/70R17s on that stock wheel? I was wondering if tire pressure needs to be a bit reduced to avoid "cone" in center and uneven wear?

Why did you end up lifting? Was it do to the offset of your new wheels or did you feel the Jeep was lacking in some way with the 35/no lift set up?

great review! nailed lots of my questions and concerns. Love the stock BFG KO2 on my rubi, so figured 35s would be the same tire. Just the review i was looking for. Only question on the width is do you feel any drifting on the road with more rubber and less connected to the road and feel. When I went big on my old cherokee my tires felt like they were drifting side to side on the highway.

Did you have to buy different size rims or are they same rims?

Did you change the rims and tires or just tires?

Here I am with a JK rubbing at full flex with 33s no lift haha

I have wrangler unlimited sport. Can I add 35s on mine too? Will it void my extended warranty?

Honestly, these JL Rubicons are complete, there is no need whatsoever to modify these one iota. Perfect stock lift with 33" ko2's. MT's might be necessary for more challenging off roading, but for most, not necessary, as this stock Rubicon is an absolute off road animal. I met a couple with this that was stock and it was fun to wheel with them. I told them what they had and how unnecessary it would be to modify it. They had the steel Rubicon bumper with the ends removed, making it much better off road and it looks a thousand times better, a total badass rig! They know what they have and won't be modifying it. I joked with them and said, my '05 TJ Rocky Mtn is just as capable, only I'm at least $35k under what they paid, but at least they are wise enough to realize they never have to spend a dime on suspension mods. My '05 is done build wise but thinking of getting ARB lockers and MT's for more challenging trails. Then I'll be d🤔ne. O|||||||O 🇺🇸 Only in a 2 Dr 🇺🇸 '41 - '06

just got my jl and want to do some mods. is this a good idea for someone new to jeeps?

Are your wheels the stock 17x 7.5"?

You put spacers On your set up?

Still liking those E rated tires?

Do you wish you had opted for 4.88 gearing? Do you ride noticeably higher?

Subsrcribed brother of the same ride!

Yeah eight speed auto you wont notice lol if you pretend you have no eighth gear.

Jeep did NOT design to handle 35's stock! No rubbing off road? Total misinformation. Look at the XR package to see what jeep thinks needs to be done for 35's. Many changes including brakes and they won't even offer on 2 door! Don't be fooled. He must have a "Magic" Rubicon.
