New Tires, RockRail Delete...

I had 245/75/16 Goodyear MT/R's that I purchased in 07/07/07
After many miles and horrible steering at 70+ it was time for new tires.
Since I can not afford $200 a piece tires right now... :roll:

( I blame Digger)
I decided to try 265/70/16 Treadwrights with the Guard Dog tread pattern...
(I figured at less than $400 Shipped, mounted, and balanced.. I could at least run them until I had some cash for something better like Duratracs or New MT/R's.)
The mechanic said that they balanced well with no problems...
They come with a 2yr/24,000 mile warranty, so they should at least get me through the winter.. :mrgreen:

Looks good...but I thought you blackened out the UCAs?

What's going on with the flares? Did you sand them down because they had some rain drops on them in one of the pics? Gonna paint em red? That could look sweet!

What paint the JBA UCA's :shock:

Could never do that! It show you are a true Off Road Jeep enthusiast! :-)r

The "Wapak Paint Man" is doing some custom work for the Number 1 KJ in Ohio
some changes are coming to it and those flares are part of the overall master plan :twisted:
