big tires are overrated!

I have had my jeep for about 6 months. I really like the way she looks. I think bigger tires would look terrible. Do you guys agree?

Now, I can't believe I have to drive around town looking like this!

I still have the soap on the wheels/tires from being mounted. I am still waiting for the 5th wheel to come in. The tire is waiting at Discount Tires until it arrives.

Nice!

Got a Trektop too I see.

BTW- check the air. When Discount put mine on, they had them set at 45psi. Rode rough as hell like that. I run them at 30psi now.

yes, i totally agree.........i'll be over in a few hours to remove the lift and tires............i just want you to be happy

oh yea, and for some reason that jeep looks really familiar...........

Guess I better hurry and find the Gorilla Guard lug nuts before Geo finds me. :soldier:


I had the trektop since I brought the jeep home. I just had the hardtop on last time. That reminds me. I need to go kick the door down at my stealership and get my money back that I paid for a softtop that I never received.

Looks great!

That's freakin awesome...What kind of wheels are those?

guess you didn't realize that Geo is one of the few people that can actually get Gorilla lug nuts off. I've seen him do it.

hmmm, but i wouldn't look as cool as Bo and Luke jumping into them. first time i tried and banged my head and fell on my back the doors would need to function again. besides when i EVENTUALY get a lift and tires, it will be pretty hard to slide across the hood.

oh I know and wait till the rubber is nice and broke in.......you wont be able to hear the radio...the kids...the wife...yourself think.....nothing.

ahhh blisss, i thought you were trying to talk me OUT of my doors.

ok your right not being able to hear...

Mom she hit me, I have to pee, I'm hungry, are we there yet...and honey are you ignoring the kids, can you hear me? are you ignoring me, this jeep is too loud next trip we are taking my car....

might be kinda nice, why do you think G wants your doors

I love those wheels. Nice looking Jeep!

I found a slight rub at max turn on the bottom front inside part of the fender. At least that is where I think it is since its the only thing even close to rubbing. I will have to have someone else look. When I get out to check it still has clearance.

I am really glad I went with the 35s. I thought about 33s just because of power from my 3.73 gears. But I don't even notice a difference yet. Maybe its because I drove it long enough stock to realize it was low on power to begin with. Strong winds on the highway always slowed me down on the highway, still do. I drove 75 on the highway this morning to see if I would notice anything major. I then realized I was probably doing 80 with the bigger tires. I need to get out the GPS and see how far the speedo is off.

I do hear some noise when I am braking. I know the brakes have to work harder to stop now but should there be any extra noise? It sounds like new brake shoes wearing off that first layer.
