Question

[QUOTE=Wrangler_Jay;2086823]. I was thinking of selling the stock wheels and tires but I guess I could be swayed to reconsider I suppose to keep em for the salty snow roads in the winter months.

Was thinking the same thing. Bought some wheels and Bridgestone MT's here on the forum but the Goodyear Wrangler SR-A's that came stock on my JK were great on the snow and ice. Just seems a lot easier to keep the extra set. Could always use some money for more parts though....

its definitely an issue for sure, lol. I know I could sling my stock 18" sahara's and the tires for a good $700 since the tread is only worn down about 30%.

I mean $700 bucks plus 300 from my own pocket could get me some brand new gears installed with labor.... but then again its nice to have a nice back up set just incase if a bad winter comes in....
