Typically 31x10.50 is the biggest you can fit on a stock height TJ. Depending on the backspacing of your rims you may have to adjust the steering stops to prevent rubbing at full steering lock.

Yea without a lift your gonna rub.

Thought I should add this. That was September 5 that I painted those wheels. I just lightly sanded the wheels then painted, didn't even use primer. I have noticed a couple of really small scratches but so far the paint is holding up great.

Its rustoleum high performance wheel paint. I used the graphite color. 2 cans should be more than enough. One might do it. It was about $7 a can at AutoZone.

Just my opinion but you will not be happy with a 4cyl automatic. Had a 97 like that and it was terrible.

Ha ha. Tell us how you REALLY feel. I understand your pain though, I think I threaten to hurt an engineer anytime I work on a vehicle.

Ok so I didn't think the pic attached since it gave me a message about the app crashing. But since it worked here's a couple more.

I don't hardly put enough miles on my tires to wear them out anymore. I'm more concerned with then rotting off. Which also made it really hard to justify spending money on new rims. So I went with $15 worth of spray paint instead.

I've read on various jeep sites where a lot of people do run the bigger filters. Never have myself. Thought about it but just never think of it when I'm changing the oil. Sent from my Droid using Jeepz

Always been taking stuff apart and "helping" older family members. I did take 2 years of auto mechanics in high school that covered the basics. Everything else is self taught/learned by reading. Nathan Sent from my Droid using Jeepz

At one point a few years ago I think there was a thread on this site with all the reasons a Jeep is better than a woman. Funny read, but might not want to show her that one. Ha ha Oh and Terry, funny story. I decided to paint the rims on my Jeep the other day (tried to start a thread with pics...
