With my Wildtrak suspension swap, I MAY be able to run 37s.

[EvilJim1971]

Looking over the Bronco today, and with the bump in lift it got from my 4 door Wildtrak takeoffs... I am thinking that 37s MIGHT be able to fit.
I would have to do something about the front mudflaps.

Thoughts?

Mudflaps definitely need to go but here is my base Sas with stock suspension on KO2 37's. They are probably the smallest 37 and I still had some rubbing with my 17x9 -6 offset wheels. Don't forget that those stock Goodyears are really 34's so going to 37's is almost 2-1/2" taller.

The tires I'm looking at are advertised as 36.54" inflated height, so just over 2" taller than the stock Goodyears.
One inch larger all around and right at right about the same width.

If you want front mudflaps with no rub, Bro-Flaps are as flush as it gets. broflaps.com.

37s will fit but you'll have to decide how much rubbing is acceptable. With +30mm offset wheels most likely will rub the crash bar mounts and fender liners at full stuff/lock. Mud flaps probably not going to last long.

Oh yeah the mud flaps were the first thing I noticed.

Are you running the JKS Max Clearance kit?

No, my wheels are 17x9 with -6 offset so they push out a good 1-1/2 to 1-3/4" more than stock. I now have the ProComp adjustable coilovers which lifted the front 2" over Sas and rear 1" over Sas so I don't have any rubbing.

Go for it, be prepared for a few modifications after. You’re not going to fly high on those foxs again without the 37 eating something up unless you do some work.

Mine looked like yours clearance wise until they pulled out of the tire shop bay and the mud flaps were grinding at the slightest turn of the wheel. Took them off to get it home.
Drove around a week before adding my lift and had heavy rubbing in reverse while turning.

I’d love to see your Bronco on 37’s.

May need to take a sawsAll to those crash bars.
