Well, that's an interesting story. I had been running Hankook Dynapro MTs on Moab wheels (tires only have 4,000 miles on them and ride great), with Spidertrax spacers. The wheels were pretty messed up so I decided to epoxy the damage and paint them argent. 3 of them turned out really good, but I also really messed one up. I decided that all the effort wasn't worth it right now so I switched out the Moabs for a set of black Marsh Racing Offroad wheels which I already had. The Marsh Racing wheels had a set of 37x13.50-17 Pitbull Rockers (used for only 100 road miles and 1 trail ride) on them and had just been sitting in the garage. The Pitbulls don't ride good at all on the road, so I put the Hankooks back on it with the Marsh wheels. At the price I am asking I will let it go with both sets of tires and wheels along with a spare set of new front axle shafts I have. If I sell the Jeep without the other goodies I will sell all the parts individually.

Yeah, our department can't figure out what it's doing with "their" cars. They are taking away about 30 cars from people who live just outside the county even though the cars were parked at the county line, all in the name of saving mgas. The kicker is that they are handing out about 100 more take-home cars to the "new guys."

So was I but I decided that I needed to cut my losses while they were still bearable... Had I tried to right sxide myself on it, I'd have been bankrupt..... morally, spiritually, financially...

So I'm still paying my debt on that very unwise purchase, but

That's too bad. I know a guy named Achmed that would give you a very good price for them

Oh well, looks like you are stuck with them.

Rule #1 - It's not "just a car", it's a JEEP!!!! Respect it!!!
