Default I still like thee tires

It sorta makes me wonder what do you get when you order a 33x12.5x15?

I still may go with this because of cost, but Falken needs to step up and make a correct height tire.

Awesome looking rig, I love the rope swing idea for your daughter
I would recomend the Falken as long as you know what your getting. They ride great and are very quiet, but I think I'm gonna try the Goodyear MTR. After talking with DTD I believe this will work better for me. I'm gonna have them put on tomorrow, I'll post pic's. She loves the rope and will not let me help her in now. Says she's a big girl.

Default Got he MTR's

I got the Goodyear MTR 35 12.50 15 put on yesterday and so far I really like these tires. Not as quiet as the Falken's but just as smooth and a full 1" taller. I beleive they give the jeep a more agressive look. I would like to say thank you to Discount Tire for working with me and making this a great experiance. I measured straight from ground to top of tire(not with he contour of the tire).

Default Heads up

Talking about MB72 but most likely all 15" rims, to be aware - there is very little space between rim and caliper, after the weights are installed,practically none space left so the adhesive (weights) better be 110% perfect,which mine are not,all 4 wheels have very bad weights adhesive and no chance in hell they will survive(some did not survive install...)!!!!!!
