The jeep looks awesome, it reminds me of mine except the tires. Thanks for snapping the shot of the tires. How do you like them ? What did you have before ? What do they actually measure in height do they actually measure 34.8" like it says in the book. My rig is a daily driver and because of the bigger size tires one goes from a pa tire to a lt tire which makes the side walls more layers while also stiffer and a harder ride. PA= passenger tire, and LT is Light Truck. Also how did you have the lights put in in your bumper ? I know that there was a series of bumpers which had the Jeep symbol actually laser cut out but mine is a stick on.

They are advertised as 34.1", but I think they're actually just under 34".
Obviously a much rougher ride compared to the stock Goodyear SR-A's- this particular size is a load range "E" tire, so you definitely feel more of the road. I'm got them running at about 30 psi. Tolerable for a daily driver. I'm surprised at how relatively quiet they are for being a mud tread.
All-in-all, I'm really happy. Looks and feels to me like the perfect size.

Yeah I see the tires that you guys have are M/T's which is definitely not the direction i was going, I was looking at more of the A/T. I am also being told that the rim is too narrow for this tire that I am looking for which is the 285x75R18, and the fella I spokr to on the net tire shoppe said I should go for the Nitto Grappler AT in a 325x65 R18 which sounds a bit too wide and I am going to get a lot of tire sticking out past my fenders. Also the fella mentioned that due to the width I am going to get uneven tire wear ? What have you guys seen on your tires so far as mileage and wear ? Whats your opinion we'd liked to know.
