I've had a great experience with Dayton Timberline AT'S. Buddy of mine who is a manager at Plaza Tire said him and the other guys loved em, but they quit carrying them at their store, if not for that I woulda had em on my XJ.

They are suppose to be good. I like my destination AT im using atm. They are serving me well and did good in the deep snow we had. If money isn't too muchb an issue. Look at the duratracs. Alot of good reviews on them. And even thought people say the sidewalls are weak. I've seen them first hand on blue rock trails aired down

I've seen them aired down, and I've also seen the sidewalls tear lol. I wouldn't recommend DTs for rocks because it's a fact that the sidewalls are weaker than many competing tires. Whether or not that matters to the buyer is the important question.

Ok so I currently have a stock xj.. looking to lift 6.5 inches so obv i need an SYE and a driveshaft. Advanced adapters sells a combo kit with an SYE and a tom woods driveshaft. So my first question what yoke option should i use? 1310 cv yoke, 1310 non cv yoke, 1350 cv yoke, 1350 non cv yoke, 1300 series flange yoke, 1410 series flange yoke. Then after that it asks to measure the length of the current driveshaft of what i have on my jeep currently.. Am i missing something here or what because that measurement would obviously change once the jeeps lifted.. if someone could clear this up for me i would appreciate it

A truss isn't the only thing to worry about when getting 35s. Theres re gearing also. Others will chime in other stuff to worry about

Anyone got any suggestions for cheap steelies? I'm stuffin 31x10.5's under my stock 2000 xj sport and need 15x8's with 3.75" backspacing. Cheaper the better as long as they won't just melt like play dough. Don't need top of the line wheels I'm more of the weekend warrior and get me to the good huntin spots kinda jeeper. There's an offroad shop near my house that has what I'm lookin for at 50 bucks a wheel anyone know anywhere cheaper than that?

That's pretty standard pricing. Jegs or summit might be a little cheaper.

I guess I'll be nice and tell you that 31's won't fit and with that backspacing expect to lose every fender flare.
