Method 105 Beadlocks w/ 37's Fitment?

Did you have to do any trimming with that setup? Doubt you will with the McNeils, but curious with OEM fenders. Thanks.

I had to trim the inner side of the wheel well.

For all you guys running MR105's with 37x12.5R17, the only MR05 fitment I see is in an 8.5" rim width? I know most of the popular 37s spec out with 8.5-11' rim range, but I've never been a fan of running on the smallest spec rim width. Would prefer a 9-9.5" rim width.

Are you guys running 37's fine on the 8.5" rim width or is there a wider rim MR105 fitment for the gen2 that I'm not aware of? Many thanks!

I have 9x17 rim 0 offset with 37x12.50x17 with no rubbing. I did trim a little in the front

I have Geisers up front and deaver +3 out back with rpg drop shackles. I will be mounting McNeil 2+2 fenders this weekend.

So did the +3 with drop shackles come out to stock height? I’m getting ready to do this but worried it’s going to end up ass high. I have the SDHQ drop in my garage. When I bought the truck I didn’t wanna lift the front, so I bought the rear drop shackle and put it on thinking that would level the truck, which I did but the truck ended up being way too low. I have 2.25 rpg up front but am thinking of going to Geisers. My front has sagged some after 10k mikes. I think the rpg compressing the stock spring must have wore them out faster. IMO.

So I just installed a set of the 8.5 17” 0 offset 105s with 35” toyo rt tires and I’m definitely wishing I had gone 37s instead (at least with the Toyo rts no rubbing at all on complete stock suspension setup.

***note: the pics make them look muuuuch bigger than they do in pwrson****
kind of a crappy picture since it was at night, and it actually makes them look a lot bigger than they really do, but end result is the 35s look like mall crawler, too small imo.

I plan on switching to 37s as soon as I can.

However, the tire will make a big difference; I took off a pair of semi worn 35” mud grapplers and those actually rubbed, so I prob wouldn’t run 37 mud grapplers.
