If you are or have pics post em up.
I picked up a set will be ordering centers soon and maybe 35" boggers.
I dohave the 37s that were on them but not sure I want that much rubber on the dana 30.

I've never seen someone running them on a Dana 30. You recentering to 5x4.5"? What backspacing? Good stuff, I'll be curious to see that. How many bead lock bolts are the ones you picked up?

Aren't H1 wheels a 16.5" diameter? Because if so, I'm pretty sure you're only shopping at the Interco tire store haha.

12.

And yes interco store will be my friend. Something 35-36bogger or tsl

pvc inserts 5x4.5 centers back spacing will be about 3.5" with pressed centers can get 4" plus with flat centers but then I can't clear steering and possible brakes


my trucks keeping them warm. The 37s have decent tread so I myswell burn some off.

Im sure someone's running these on a jeep but they probly stayed 8lug

Couldn't sleep so I decided to remove the center of the 5th wheel. Free handed it and it actually turned out alright



These 37s measure 35 under my pickup with 50psi in them. Probably have to run 10-15 for them to sit about the same under the xj.

Doing taxes tomorrow so probly order centers in a couple weeks and maybe rock rings.

Still trying to find some 16" material on the free side to make inserts to lock bead.
Might also cut down run flats.

Need to pull a front bearing off my othere dana 30 so I can make a runout jig to get centers welded in kinda straight. Just need to be kinda straight lol

Just scored almost 4ft of 16" to make inserts. This save about 300bucks.

Made one insert.


Installed in tire with winch

Mock up minus wheel center

Machined out to clear valve core


Pvc inserts are fairly labor intensive but well worth the effort in savings

Test run. Mounted tire with tools i have in the jeep. Took awhile but the little compressor finally got this 37" tire up to 50psi
accidentally broke tge valve core so I drilled this wheel to accept normal rubber valve cores.

Dragging my feet to fab the othere 4 bead lock inserts


Wheel halves just bolt over the tire sandwiching the insert in the middle


I was shorted a bunch of tax return this year luckily I get a stimulus credit so ill order wheel stuff soon the this rambling might get fun ounce the welder starts squurting wire.
