37” tires on 16.5 Oem rims?

I did once, but the rims were pretty narrow and it crowned the tires badly. I swapped over to some aluminum rims after that. 16.5" rims that is. You should NEVER put HMMWV tires on a 16" rim.

Thanks for the advice! I did not think about the crowning of the tires… 🤔Sounds like a bad idea with such a narrow rim. Glad I asked!

I used some vintage F350 snow fighter whatever rims. 16.5 with some crazy 10" wide stance. One of the only trucks with that dimension rim.

They are hard to find bit fit the HMMWV tire perfect. They will touch the back of your fender though. Even with 4" of lift.
