Stock steelies... I will find new wheels if I have to but I want to try to make those work because the Kevlar sidewall is a b**ch to mount haha

dukie564

yea those are going to both rub and require fender trimming with stock wheels

I'd think a wise investment would be some steelies from jegs with 3.75" BS. Under $200 shipped for 4. You're going to kill your turn radius using stock rims. Spacers are another option but not much cheaper than new wheels...

Unless you are mounting the tires by hand, it shouldn't be an issue.

No but the mounting machine at my shop has no *****...we don't do tires often so we don't have a need to fix it .... Took three guys to rotate the tire an push down enough to get it on( its that bad) plus I stuffed them on stock wheels instead of going to 10 inch wide

Hi,

I am a newbie to the forum and the world of Jeep builds looking for some sound advice and a shop in the mid-Michigan region that can help me. I am the original owner of a '94 Grand Cherokee Laredo, with Up-Country Suspension, that I've taken on several Jamborees. During the last one I sucked in water making a splash while puddle jumping, an expensive lesson to be sure. Those experiences gave me an itch that I now have the resources to scratch.

The first projects that I would like to to undertake are: 1) a Reubicon Express 4.5 lift kit and, 2) an ARB Safari Snorkel, which I understand will require that the ABS Controller be relocated. I don't intend to breath any more water. Are there any other issues with either project that I should be aware of and is there a good 4x4 shop that can help in my area?

Thanks, perhaps I'll see ya on the trail.

Well I can't find a set of 31s in my budget, can't find any used ones. So my jeep with a 3'' lift is going on 235/75-15 goodyear wrangler radials. I hope this thing doesn't look retarded lol

It will, I drove mine like that for a year, it'll just make the day you finally put bigger tires on that much more awesome.

Keep an eye on craigslist. Also, ask around. I found a local tire shop through a buddy who races with the owner...been getting good prices on tires ever since, at least on the brands he carries.

For what its worth I'll be running the same size on my 3" lift prolly for a few months til I have the cash for a bigger set. I'm going to go ahead and get them mounted on d-windows with more offset...at least that way it won't be so tall'n'skinny...

I'm stuck trying to choose between these two tires...

Both 31x10.5x15.. I would obviously like the MT/Rs but if they're going to be terrible for on-road driving I'm not sure.. noise isn't really too much of a factor, but would the MTRs be a LOT louder than the ATs?

I've been eye-balling the Dick Cepek all terrain vs. mud terrain...

i put a 3" lift on my 92 xj about a month ago and ever since, there is a rattle when i hit the brake harder than normal...like when i have to come to a quick stop. does anyone know what thats about? i heard it might be my drive train or drive shaft but im not sure. any thoughts?

Parking brake lines hitting the body? I really have no idea. Mine rattles all the time.

94XjSport94

You can buy my 33x10.5 KM2's

tssguy123

Could I even fit 33s on 3.5" without trimming? I might take you up on that...
