Does anyone know if you can put 37x12.5x17 or 18 tires on the H2 without a lift or cutouts? Does it rub when you turn? Thankyou.

I checked Four Wheeler magazine's fitment chart and the H2 has not been rated yet. My gut tells me that 37s will run awfully close to those fenders when articulated at impact and/or turn-in.

You can get away with 36s (e.g. Super Swamper, Mickey Thompson, Dick Cepek), but you'll have to change wheels to a 16" and I don't know how that bodes for fitment with the braking system. The more you deviate from OEM items the greater the impact on the Speedo & Brakes.

I noticed yesterday that these tires have rubbed the torsion bar in front (passenger side), Not bad but wouldn't go bigger stock. /infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

Thanks for the reply. From sight I figured they would rub. I was hoping to achieve a taller tire profile for clearance and looks without a lift and was wondering if someone else had tackled this issue. Again thanks.
