I have a freind that swears by the treadrights.

 

get whatever rims the fewest people have. Because obviously how your jeep looks is the most important thing that contributes to performance. For example, since so many people have soft 8's, when you put them on your jeep, your performance will probably go DOWN.

Best rims are the ones that the fewest people have, because they off road better.

I know some guy who had custom rims machined for his 2wd cherokee sport, and he made it up Rubicon without a lift. Same trip, this guy who had a 6" lift full lockers, and disconnects got stuck about 30 mins in. Probably because he had soft 8s.

 

I dont unferstand how rims could get you stuck..

 

?

 

Treadwrights are recaps. But they're known for a quality job on them. Got a few people I know that run 'em and they run 'em hard. They've never had an issue with them.

Just goes to show that the Jeep don't make the driver, the driver makes the Jeep. Doesn't matter what you've got on it - rims, lockers, lift, whatever - if you can't drive offroad, you're not gonna get far. It's all about driver's skill and knowing how to use what you've got.

 

I checked on those treadwrights, at 108 a peice for 31s is a damn good deal but with an extra 150$ shipping, and a 2 week processing period .. Id be vetter off going to get a set of wrangler mts for 148 a peice

 

Tell them you're from Cherokeeforum, I had my Guard Dogs shipped to my door for $507.

 

You mean MTR's? And where are you getting them for $148 each in a 31x10.5?

 

Good ole walmart

 

Lowest price walmart.com shows for a MTR is $213. How are you getting it for $148? For that price I may end up having to get some and just sell my BFG A/T's.

 

Walmart normally has the beefy look gy wranglers for 150 i was goin to run em

 

They run an inch small.

 

Those aren't MTRs at Walmart. If I'm right you're talking about those Goodyear mud terrain duratrac looking things. Forget the name. I asked goodyear about them. The guy told me they have weak sidewalls but are otherwise a good tire. So for a DD that doesn't see abuse they'd probably be OK. I've thought about getting them.

 

They are just good year wranglers that only walmart stocks and carries..only 150 for a 31.. Which actually measures out about a 30..Almost all tires run a bit small..but these are like an entire inch small..Thin sidewalls yes, but a decent tire for a decent price. Probably will be the next set for the ladies commander.

 

I ran bfg km2s on my.97 and i lovedd them, but my wife is in labor right.now as im typing.this so baby money lol
