37" performance

[Old Plumber]

Mine came with 37’s. I bought used 5 k miles. It rides great but the Speedo is off for sure. Can’t imagine what it’s like with the 35’s.
Of course I came out of an F-350 diesel.

Awesome. Thank you. It took me a while to get used to not having the torque to carry overdrive, coming from a modified turbo diesel.

Thank you everyone for the responses. 37’s ordered today.

Which tires did you go with?

Which tires did you go with?

Going with a 37x12.50r20 bfg ko2. Right at 71lb. Paired with the weld it should be 99lb, which i think is less than the stock beadlock capable setup.

I just can't bring myself to get bigger wheels, update us after the new set up is on!

Looks like the stock non-beadlocks, which I have are 93lbs for the wheel and tire. I have not found lighter 18" wheels the the stock 18's (that are reasonably-priced).

Ya, i have non beadlocks too. Will see if i notice a diff, or how significant.

I would imagine after someone spends thousands on new wheels and tires, they might have a tendency to downplay the negative effects. And everyone has their own opinion of what’s “slight” or “significant”. It would be really nice if someone would pick up a Dragy and actually put some numbers to this, before and after.

That’s what i have observed, people feel the need to justify their expense so they sometimes don’t share everything. Also, a lot of folks don’t even notice things that others notice. I’ll look into a dragy.

The more people hammer Yukon gears…. The sooner they will have their front carrier and f/r gear sets out!
