Tire options for 2wd 7in lift

bigredbighorn882007 · Feb 25, 2018

looking into putting a 7in lift on my 13 2wd and trying to go ahead and plan out the type of tire I would want to go with. I have the 8 speed with 3.92 rears since I wanted to get the most pull. Basically I want to know which tires are people running for 2wd and have the most luck off road. Mostly would just do small trails but want to get the most out of the mud if I have to get in it. It won’t see much highway since I’m a truck driver and use it on weekends when I get home.

Im running 37" ironman m/t's on my 2wd w 4" lift they do really well in mud and dirt

What trans and gears do you have? And how much difference did you see in pulling after you went up to 37s? And what all did you have to do to run 37s on a 4in? I figured you needed at least 6in to do 37s.

Just get some all terrains. Since you dont have 4 wheel drive an aggressive tire isnt really going to help.

Any all terrains you recommend?

Love my Nitto Ridge Grappler, a great in between Trail and G2.

I have the 8spd in it with the Hemi. Not sure what gears I will double check. I haven't seen any difference in pulling between my 35's or 37's, I just did 2 tons of rock on flatbed trailer with no issues. I didn't have to cut or mod anything to fit the 37's on the 4". I can turn crank to crank with out rubbing

I have CST 4" spindles on the front with rear spacer.

Interesting. I love the way yours looks. What size rear spacer are you using? And I’m assuming 37x12.5?

Thank you. I get a lot of people trying to figure out what size they are when I park. And yes it's a 37x12.50 and I'm running a 1.75" rear spacer

I have a 2wd with a 7.5 lift falken wildpeaks at3 are awesome on trails there all around one of the best there even beefier than the nitto I think. I have 35’s you don’t want nothing smaller than 35 with that much lift it won’t look right I speak from experience lol

I guess I can rethink the 7in now. A 4in would make loading the kids up a lot easier than the 7in and still have 37s as an option. Time to start saving

I forgot all about the wildpeaks. Bought a Yukon with those before I put Destination MTs on it. Never used them on the trails so didn’t get to see first hand

There’s a lot of post on reviews about them reading them will definitely make you want a set
