Nitto ridge grappler 38x11.5r17?

[strawhatguy]

I have a 23 non-SAS BD, that I want to upgrade with Bilstein 6112s (bought, not installed yet ) and the 35x11.5 Nittos, which fits on my BD steelies.

I’m still leaning towards 35s, but I just saw on Nitto website there is a 38x11.5 tire that would also fit my wheels and the extra height is tempting.

anyone try these yet?

I’m new at this; I assume one would need the JKS clearance kit, and I’m not sure my 4.46 gearing is enough for that tall of tire, or if it would fit. And would need an extension for the brake light above the spare, etc. Any other considerations?

Yeah , just thought of another consideration: procal only goes to 37 inch tires I believe, maybe Forscan can go more; otherwise the speedometer will be off slightly

No, they both hit the same limit in the computer. They just have different ways of inputting it.

Nittos are great tires but most in our sizes are E-rated and heavy because they cater to the Superduty truck crowd. Now I’m curious to look at these, is this a new size offering?
