Thanks for the comparison video. It's a personal choice and I think it's perfectly fine to go with larger tires. Having said that, I keep hearing terms like "it's only one inch" or "it's only six pounds heavier per tire" or "the brakes work fine". The thing that a lot of people don't fully appreciate is that when it comes to ROTATING MASS those little things make a big difference in performance, economy and longevity of everything from engine and transmission to all the little bushings and suspension. If someone wants larger tires for looks or performance then that's fine but there is a trade-off. The gearing will be higher which means slower off the line and less low speed gearing off road as well as less braking power and more vehicle wear and less range off road and more fuel stops. The increased weight and rolling resistance of taller and wider tires means less fuel efficiency. If people want to maximize the performance of the vehicle in those areas then choosing the smallest tire that gets the job done is the best choice. That will vary from person to person depending on their individual driving and trails.For the life of the vehicle those extra tire costs, fuel costs, additional modifications in tire carriers etc as will as increased wear and tear will add up to thousands of dollars extra. Spread out over 10 years that may or may not be a big deal for someone but my point is it does add up.

I have a 73 CJ5 since new , when I bought it they put 32” and said they were best when those were gone I put 33” on and ran that size for fifty years with 3:73s the little 304 did well . Now have a LT1 and 4:56s (strong) still have 33”s . The 304 would get about 15mpg on the road and now I get maybe 13 to 14 if I can keep my foot out of it , no comparison , it will go any where I want but at 76 years old I am a little step back on the hard stuff. I would say think about wear and tear and the fun factor, go with what is right for you. Enjoy

@@kyleharris3 When you start putting bigger tires and wheels to your vehicle, you are adding rolling weight. It's different than just adding a bumper. Your engine has to turn your wheels. The bigger the tire, the more power needed. Eventually, because of the geometry of the larger tire, you start to change the ratio between your axel to drive shaft and you begin to fall outside of your rpm power band (sweet spot). Before gearing, I wasn't able to use 6th gear, and couldn't keep 75 mph. Now, it's closer to stock performance. Do your research, there are a lot of variables...type of engine...type of transmission...type of driving you plan on doing. Re gearing will bring back performance and SOME efficiency (it's a jeep, don't expect much). Hope this helps...check out some forums, they go into more detail. Cheers!

The money spent on lift, rims, tires, an alignment, and replacing some components with heavier options, begs a re-gear. If you're doing it yourself, or you have a shop doing it, you're going to have to drop your diffs, axles etc. anyways. The regearing won't just help with power, power on hills, better off-road performance etc., but it will also allow for better slow-downs, and braking. It doesn't make sense to do the changes and not re-gear...you cannot put a value on safety. Just think of the weight differnece, especially when turning.

Then they were not installed correctly. If you get a quality brand, install with thread locker and re-torque every 5,000 miles then there shouldn’t be any issues.

Nope! Everything literally feels and works exactly the same. I was just pulling a trailer with the jeep yesterday to help my brother move and even that was no issue. Don’t hesitate to get the 35s if you really want them! I have stock gears and stock brakes and they are completely capable. The only thing I felt I needed was the bigger tire carrier.

Its impossible to tell unless you have a gauge or OBD monitor running, i can promise you your trans temp is higher than normal, highly recommend fitting a trans oil cooler, seperate to the factory one. Thank me later! Ask me how i know lol

The big deal here is different jk models have different gear ratios. If you have 4:10 then 35s are probably gonna be fine. If you have 3:21 then you might have a bit more of a issue.

@@steveschillero2013 2" spacers are pretty scary. I run 1.5 and would rather be no more than 1.25. Really adding stress out there at the end of your axle. The right wheel alleviates the issue for tire clearance and need for spacers

Question of the experts watching this video: I have a 2018 Sport (still JK) with a 2.5" lift on it and 33s, wanna go to 35s (maybe a 1" body lift) - what gearing should I upgrade to?

What transmission do you have? What gears do you have? Also depends on what your goals are? Commuting? Trails? Rock Crawling? Mud Boggs?

If it were me, I'd be looking at 4:10's. But that's just a starting point..... If you want better gas mileage, go down numerically, if you prefer more torque, go up numerically. From 4:10's it's personal preference.

Not a expert, but I own a 2018 wrangler JK sport s, 2.5 superlift and Ironman 315/70R17E MT I run 3.73 gears with a 5 speed automatic transmission, I bought a gadget to fix the Speedo and shift points and I normally drive 70 Max and I avg 16.5 mpg, I'm a hunter and fisher, not a public trail jeep, I put a after market short front bumper on it and a 9000lb winch, I am perfectly happy with my set up so far, but eventually I will be looking for a 4" lift and some 40" tires, then I will probably do a gear swap to 4.88 or 5 something, course gas mileage will go out the window
