Okay, I'm a click away from pulling the trigger on 17" Weld Commando's and 37/12.50-17 BFG All Terrains.

Anyone running these? I want to assured that they won't rub.

Also, I really don't want to recalibrate anything after I put on the 37's. I put on 35's on our previous H3 and aside from a little rubbing there were no issues. Anything wrong with putting on these 37's and not adjusting anything else? Any ABS or traction control issues?

Please advise, thanks.

You should be fine, minimal rubbing at best. They're not that wide.

Your speedo will be off, about 4% I think I read. More info is at *******club.

Upgrading to 37" MTR has very little rub on mine. My speedo is right on, as tested by numerous "YOUR SPEED" electronic signs around town. Maybe the 35" stockers were off? Go figure..

Btw, Kacy, you better sell this one quick, if you're still going for all of the H2 colors...

Mine is off as compared to GPS calculated speed. Dead on back when I had the 35"s. I could use my programmer and change it, but the difference is so small and insignificant that it's a waste of time going through to push the buttons to make the change that's so small.

Mine was off by 5mph at 100mph. Wasn't enough to make a difference to me. They will rub just as much as your 35's rubbed.
Nice move going with 37's, you'll definetly see and feel the difference!

Good luck and send pics!

Otay folks, thanks for the info. I read somewhere else that it will affect torque. On my H3 going from 33's to 35's made a material difference in power; enough for me to go with 33's again. But the H2 has a lot more torque so my guess it that I won't notice too much difference.

Am I correct?
