I've been running 35x12.5x17 Hogs on my 2014 JKUR for around 16 months now.

After a quick session with the Flashpaq to tell it the new tyre size there was no loss of power and the fuel economy came back to normal.

I will say whilst I love the tyres for their grip, I'll be changing to a Nitto muddy in a 285/75/17 for the next set of tyres.

Don't let the numbers on the sidewall fool you, they aren't 100% correct and some manufacturers understate but far more over state the actual size of the tyre.
My Mudhogs whilst the sidewall says they are 35/12.5/17 in reality are only about 33.5" in diameter.
The 285/75/17 Nittos are actually 34.09" in diameter and are less likely to get into trouble with plod.
