Horse crap! The dealership has to prove that the 35's affected the specific part(s) that failed.... I think it's time to search out a mod friend dealership.

I guess you will have to search out the for sale section for some used stock rubi wheels/tires and grab some spacers for those dealership warranty moments!

Still doesn't make any sense. There really is very little difference between 35's and 33's.

Are you talking your entire warranty or just your warranty on the axles? If you're saying if your ac goes out, you arent covered because you're running 35's, find a new dealer.


Not sure if the warranty is any different in Canada, but my warranty actually has a statement in it that essentially says mods DO NOT void the warranty unless they are responsible for the damage. Look at the voided warranty sticky and you'll see the line I'm talking about.

Good luck keeping the 35's, your jeep looks great.

if by powertrain, your dealer means axles, thats understandable... if he's talking the engine and trans, thats quite a stretch. regear the axles and you regain all that lost power.
