Jeep Gladiator Off-Roading With 35” Tires

[@freshprince7914]

Its amazing how tires can really improve the look. Im not a fan of jeeps but i like the look of the gladiator, but with the 35s I'm loveing it. Looks so much better and fits well

[@sambrimly4474]

Nice to see Cassie back in the videos!

[@OneEphraimite]

35” Tires make it look perfectly Beefy. I was thinking of going with 33’s but seeing how yours looks and rides on 35” tires has me convinced. Thanks for the upload, great video.

[@JKGearandGadgets]

It does look good!! you wont regret 35s! Stay tuned for the next videos with it on 37s!

@@JKGearandGadgets Oops. Should have watch the whole video before messaging! Great video btw 👍🏼

[@gatorman9280]

Just watched the 35’s on the gladiator. Looks great! I have a Mojave gladiator and putting 35’s on it. Great info. Love you guys videos. The wife and also love the interaction with you and your wife. Jeep on!!

[@mssammielowe]

We know you have 37" waiting to go on, but the 35's look great and maintain a civilized ride and maintain the stock look, which is awesome! You guys have the JK and LJ to do the hardcore wheeling..... You guys have probably wheeled the JT harder than most, and again a $53K Jeep you don't want to destroy. My guess is 90% of the Gladiators with 40's never see anything but asphalt! I can't believe how well the Gladiator did in the mud on those rocks... Impressive.. More impressive is Cassie! She makes these videos so awesome... PLEASE keep her included when you can.. Waiting for the review of the JL/JT Tazer! Well done guys...

Liked the 35s on there. Thats what i run on my JK so my short wife can still get in. I am looking forward to seeing it on bigger tires though. Still enjoying the videos. Keep them coming.

[@jimschmidt4089]

Ramble on Brother, enjoy hearing your thoughts about the things you do. Always learning from ya. Looks like the Gladiator handles 35s very well and those wheels look good too. Looking forward to the 37 trial and all that needs to happen to make them work.

[@JKGearandGadgets]

Thank you 🤘

[@jasonhassen8470]

It is a VERY good looking 'truck''. My colors and the tires not only look bad ass, they work! I chewed on the 'truck' bit for a while but yes, it is, a bad ass one at that! A lift and 37"s, cant wait to see!!! Awesome videos, keep them coming!!!

[@indridcold8433]

My aging TJ has 35x12.5R15 tyres. It has a Skyjacker 4.5 inch suspension lift, Teraflex adjustable track bar, super thick teraflex adjustable tie rod and I had to install new rims to stop rubbing when making turns. However, I did not have enough money to get new rims with the proper offset. I bought hubcentric 2.5 inch spacers and stopped the rubbing on turns. Besides, I really like the vintage stock Canyon rims on my aging TJ. So, I really did not force the rims when the spacers are doing incredibly well. My aging TJ has been with me many years and I do not think I will ever part with her. I have installed everything completely by myself and even broke a thumb during the Skyjacker lift install. I learned the hard way with my YJ. Never depend on anybody helping you unless you pay a shop. So I bought the tools and installed everything myself. Though I will never part with my YJ nor my TJ, a nice Gladiator JT would make a great roomate for my ladies. I am also looking for a replacement JKU because my Sahara Unlimited JKU had to be sold due to financial difficulties. But now I am ready to find a JKU again. Then add a JT to the family.

[@JohnDoe-wy2py]

How refreshing to watch a wheeling video where the chick doesn't constantly interrupt the driver and as an added bonus only one "there ya go" and for extra credit no annoying laugh.

[@joemuller4650]

Love the fact that you are both into it, together. Couples that Wheel together...slip together. Anyway, if you have not already, I would strongly suggest you air down to 18 psi (or less). On the videos, it looks like your tires are not flexin in the sidewall. You would enjoy far better traction and comfort as well.

[@JKGearandGadgets]

Haha thanks for watching 🤘. The tires were actually aired down, but yes it seemed like I could go a tad lower.

[@Whiteandsonsgarage]

Oh mate I need one in my life, awesome video mate

[@7CitiesVapesHampton]

I need to hook up with you when your wheeling the gladiator, no way ill keep up with your JK but prolly have fun trying to keep up with the gladiator

[@bennelson9826]

Ahhh!!!! Not the mud! We will be seeing that left over in the next year of install videos 😭

[@IB08Sahara]

That hill descent it’s an awesome feature, gotta see how it does coming down on snow, that will be perfect

[@jbird1173]

You have a solid axle truck. So the only extra clearance you get is from the tires. Going from 33s to 35s gets you 1 inch more clearance under the differentials. Suspension lift gives you zero inches without increasing tire size. It will increase the body's clearance but not the axle which is the lowest point.

[@JKGearandGadgets]

My issue last time we were out was high centering, not axle clearance. That’s why I said the extra suspension height helped (raising body and frame). Overall from the tires, and suspension, it helped the truck bottom out less.

[@edwinnavasarkian4662]

I go with 38 instead of 37 tires.i just never been a big fan of 37.my jeep wrangler Rubicon jk has lift 40 tires 513 gears Dana 60 axels front and rear lockers and a hemi engine in it. It's a blast off roading in it.

[@jackhook4192]

@@lastbhatalive we use to have the 456 gears they worked great but when we went to 40 tires decided to go 513 gears .

[@ProjectXJ]

Its kind of crazy to me how a 35 is now a beginner tire. A lot had to be done to my XJ to fit 33's! I am ready to go 35's but have a few more things to do to keep my flex and not rub. So many people have 37's and even 40's now.

[@JKGearandGadgets]

yeah man its crazy. I remember back in the day, when i was first getting started. 31s were a nice tire to run, and 33s were big, 35s were for the serious guys, and the buggies were on 37s haha. Its crazy the changes that have happened in the offroad scene over the years, as well as the changes that modern jeeps have made to allow bigger tires. However, its also a drawback having a newbie out on the trail with 40s, it usually leads to a false sense of capability and puts them in situations they are not ready to handle. But then again, an XJ on 35s with lockers, can easily keep up with a JK or JL on 37s. Even with this truck on 37s or 40s, i could easily go more places with my LJ on 35s. You'll love your XJ on 35s, just make sure to beef up the areas that will need it!

[@ProjectXJ]

@UC3-bMz3L8wgzLlkLcXA4O0Q Yeah I have a trussed dana 30, with gussets, chromoly shafts and a locker, Ford 8.8 rear end with a truss and a detroit locker. I also have bumpers and sliders and skids. Just need frame stiffeners and a cage!

I think 37s and a 3” lift would see you over any obstacles no problem... I love the look of that gladiator tho!

[@oldmanbuild]

Lets face it the rims and 35's you have on the Gladiator pull it all together in my opinion. Your muddy ride up Daniel was impressive. Question do you have access to the weather channel? Were crocks predicted for that day. I'm glad Cassie wasn't hurt on the falls. She does an excellent filming on a trail like Daniel, being as steep as it is. Thanks enjoying the Gladiator builds. OMB
