    30.5 tires on a TJ

    sure you can run 31's. I run 31x10.50s on mine with the grizzly wheels. I get a little rub when discoed and at max flex with the tires at lock one way or the other. I am planning on a couple washers behind the steering stops to cure that.

    Hossenfeth's New Tire Upgrade

    Yeah look around some places will buy them. Or you could sell them on ebay...kinda a pain but.... I really like the look on the stock rims...but you can sell them and buy some AR767s (or your wheel of choice) and gain money in the end.

    Hossenfeth's New Tire Upgrade

    Dunno how they will hold up. The tire shop gave me $50 a piece for my gs-a's (with 10,000 on them) so I came out at about 40$ a tire after I sold my old ones.
