HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.............but seriously HAHAHAHAHA.
i suppose people who dont wheel em do this, i know there were guys in my area who ran 36s and thought it was badass but the jeeps were pavement queens....those that do wheel em have probly dumped in twice as much with upgrades as it would have cost to go with a 44

i suppose if you leave em open, but id take lockers first and live with smaller tires......big tires aint much use if your only spinning 2
if you were locked you would have walked through that muck.....assuming your stuck as it would appear in those pics.......but if you were locked you likely would have snapped those axles with 38s sooner or later

The complete and utter lack of torque running stock gears and large tires might have something to do with it. On subject it depends what you are doing with it. Rock crawling expect to break things here and there plenty of guys blow ujoints and shafts with 35's let alone 37's.
