Re: 37x12.5x17 on stock rims
Thanks. I feel much more confidant now after doing more research!
I'll place the order next week and then post the results.

Re: 37x12.5x17 on stock rims
You will not need to crank the keys with those specific tires. They will fit just fine. If you go with a wider tire then you will need to crank them.
Get Dyna Beads Search for them on google. put those in the tires and you will never have to balance the tires.

Re: 37x12.5x17 on stock rims
Strange cause I have Goodyear MTR (Kevlar) 37x12.5x17 WITH aftermarker cranked keys (2" lift in front) and I still rub the swaybar at steering wheel lock. My bars are pretty shiny from getting rubbed by these big rubber erasers...
Love the look and performance though, so worth the trouble

Re: 37x12.5x17 on stock rims
Looking for my third set of 37 for my truck. The only thing I had to do to get these to work was install them. NOTHING is required. No rubbing no nothing. Never tweaked the torsion bars. At least on my '04 that's been offroaded all over the country including the infamous Rubicon.

Re: 37x12.5x17 on stock rims
Does anyone have any pictures of these tires mounted on the stock rims while mounted on the truck?

Re: 37x12.5x17 on stock rims
very informative thread. I'm still relatively new to the hummer world and have researched quite a bit but just assumed 35's were stock. I can't believe how much better the 37's make the truck look in the pics above-fills the gap!
My stockers rub a tiny bit on the sway bar but its nothing major-I've read that can happen. My first set of tires for this thing will definitely be 37's-as long as I can still fit the thing in the garage lol.
Thanks again for the info everyone!
