I just bought 32x11.50 hankook dynapro MT's. They get great snow reviews, but I haven't put them on the jeep yet. Lift goes on this weekend so then I'll be able to fit them.

Changed my mind. Now planning on getting RC 4.5" x-series instead of RE 3.5". The RC kits seems pretty complete to me. Just want to make sure there isnt anything else i should look into getting. Seems like it has everything i want/need. Any bad thoughts you guys have on this kit? Thanks

I've got a question. I got the Rusty's 3" lift kit with their hydro shocks. I'm going to be lifting it another 1.5". Was wondering will I need longer shocks? Also, I was planning on relocating the shock mounts on the rear axle to retain original shock travel, but would that even be necessary for just another 1.5"?

That's the exact tire and size that I have. They're good on dry and wet roads, awesome in mud and dirt. Decent in the snow, but I wouldn't call them great. Overall a fantastic tire!

They were probably 2 inches shorter then the stock ones. You may need a SYE. Every XJ is different. My 88 didn't even need a tc drop and my 96 needed the tc drop.

I really like the goodyear wranglers. Never had any issues with them, especially in snow. And theyre awesome road tires as well.

The hummer wheel is a 3 piece wheel. These pressed centers will work. It's not that hard to do...
