Windshield I had replaced. Suprisingly I called royal auto glass, I had great results! I don't know if you guys have them up there but they were cheap and great!
Tires, I have firestone destination m\t's. I love them.
Plugs I went with champion stock plugs!
For windshield I'm gonna use safelight repair, they have good service and OEM glass. Def going with champions, nothin else feels right for some reason. And I might look into BFg all terrains

Loaded my 16 yr old,my girlfriend, her dad and his girlfriend up in it and drove 2 hours to Columbus to the Mopar nationals. 75 the whole way and not so much as an odd shimmy or a degree over 175. She did me proud.
