no need to do them at the same time, although it would save you time and money to do so.

Newbie: With a Wheel Question.
I don't have a lift (no plans on horizon to get a lift). My current tires: 235/75R/15. Stock Rims.
Saw a set of Rims on Craigslist. For $100.00 for Set of 4 American Racing chrome steel wheels for Jeep, 5x4.5 bolt pattern, 15x7 rim size, 4" backspacing for a moderately more aggressive stance.
(1) What is backspacing? (2) This wheel set is 15" so I believe it should fit my current tires; if I am wrong let me know. (3) Is $100.00 a good deal for these, or should I keep what I have.
Thanks in advance if my question is silly...

You can use those with your tires. Those wheels are the same size as your stock wheels, but they will give your tires a wider stance due to the lower backspacing. $100 is a great price for 4 if nothing is wrong with them.

I just bought some TSL Super Swamper Boggers for my rig. Can anyone tell me about the lifespan of these tires? I use my XJ probably 2 to 3 days a week with about 1 off road day a month. Thanks!!
