New tire size ?

[alaprova]

looking at moving up to a set of cooper stt discover mt. not sure what size to get though i know i want a 37" tall tire but not sure about width. the 1350 is actually 2 bucks cheaper than the 1250 on tread depot. i was curious if any one runs a tire that wide on a stoock rim and if there is any clerance isses when turning? thanks for your input.

I'd say stick with the 12.50, 13.50s look way too fat for the truck. Also you can't even run a 13.5 on a stock rim anyway

I think the opposite! 13.5" wire will look great on tge 3. I say do it!

I am looking for 37's too. Without beadlocks I am nervous to run 13.5" wide tires on 7.5" wide rim. Bebe is running 365x75r16 on Hutchinson dual beadlocks with stock wheel dimensions. Those are almost a 38x14.5r16

I used to run 12.5" wide on stock wheels and hit the dunes/ desert at 40-60 mph at 8-10 psi and never had issues with a tire breaking a bead at hard turns. Offcourse slow rock climbing is a different kind of wheeling...

I've run 12.5 on several of my H3 on stock wheels but was always told not to go bigger as it puts the bead at a weird angle

Pretty sure OP has an H2... I think everyone who replied to this thread owns an H3 not an H2 including myself lol.

Go with the 13.5.

You are absolutely right! So sorry for the confusion. Go with the 13.5" for H2

If you have air suspension, you will need to do the level sensor mod going with 13.5.

Yup 13.5's

My rig is a 2003 h2. it does have the air suspension. Believe it or not i like the air suspension since about every other weeked im pulling a 16ft enclosed trailer with my rzr and a bunch of gear and tools. so Zach im not familar with the level sensor mod, could you maybe explain it a little more and why i would need to do it

13.5 might actually work in your benefit on a skinny rim, when you sit down it'll work as a cheap mans beadlock

Will runing that wide of tire cause rubbing when turning at full lock?

 

[bebe]

I would never run a Cooper....ever. On any vehicle.

BFG
Toyo
Wrangler

In that order.

 

[Renagade132]

I run Nitto Trail Grapplers, they are amazing tires!!!

All depends on your offset/backspace. Stock wheels with 13.5's I would say will rub for sure. My stock 35's used to rub on the passenger sway bar at full lock. That was resolved with aftermarket wheels with a 4.5" backspace.

I've got those Coopers in 37x12.5 on stock rims on my 08. I personally wouldn't go larger. I was planning on buying GY again but they were sold out nation wide so I got the coopers. Have not had time to get off pavement with them year, but I'm happy with the road ride and noise level with these.
