Finally new tires coming

[Ry' N Jen]

Four new 245-75-16 inch M/T R Kevlar tires will be here in 7-10 business days!
I'll have three very usable trailer tires from the original 5 tires that were on our Rig.
Those are going to get used on our tent trailer.
$1218.52 mounted, balanced and stuffed under the Heep.

That's your second set so I guess you really like them.

Yup!
They are really excellent tires!
I figured out why the front tires wore so fast.
My own stupid fault for F:favorites68:in' around with the tire
pressure for starters and the fact that I didn't rotate the tires
properly!
Oh well, an expensive lesson!

I now have three tires for the tent trailer.(The two "Better" tires
for the trailer have at least 32% tread left and the one spare has
23% left.)

We had our tires mounted on Friday.
The tire shop found us a set locally so
we didn't have to wait the 7-10 days.
$1218.52 out the door.
Had the alignment done at the dealership
and was was only out a very minimal amount.
Our KJ drives like a new Jeep again.
I'll take some photographs Saturday and post
them up.

Awesome!
I want to take your kJ for a quick spin if I get over tonight, and feel the new tires & alignment!
I am really going to have to think about my next 70 series of 17" tires.
Even though I like the silent Armor's, it is hard not to choose the MTR's.
Besides the awesome "Man Tire" look on the KJ, they really are the best $ spent, with Kevlar sidewalls, and inside tire, to help reduce road noise from an aggressive tire.
Your chance of getting a blown sidewall or even a flat are greatly reduced, or non existent.
Now you are good to go for many miles ahead Ryan & Jen!
Just remember to rotate them often this time!

 

[Ry' N Jen]

The new tires!
And they mysteriously got Goodyear Eagle NASCAR yellow tire lettering somehow!
Must of been the Radioactive puddle I drove through!:shrug:

I actually like the yellow letters... hmmm I may have to do that on my MT/Rs it should look ok with my cactus green wheels

It's Franenlifted, has 16mm. clevis lift added, Machined down CV joints, two isolators in the rear.
Tires rub the pinch weld plastic cover.(I have not bothered to pound the pinch weld.) as well as the fog lamp access doors at front of fender at full lock in reverse.

Aren't you also running wheel spacers, Ry?

Duh!

Yup, 1.25 inch wide SpiderTrax.

How many miles would you have gotten if they had the proper pressure and rotation? Also, just tossing this in, know if it comes in the 245/70/16? I'm not lifted, though bigo tried to sell me the rough country lift. =)

Forgot to mention, bigo recommended their big foot a/t in the 245/70/16 since it was a "quality" Cooper tire rebranded with 50,000 mile warranty. Haven't really found any worthy reviews on the tire but I know a/t <> m/t so hard to compare these two.

As far as how many mole miles I would of been able to get out of them?
The rear tires still have about 32% tread left on them. I could of easily
used them until the end of October of this year (another 6k miles).
But I have plans for them...
Lifting our tent trailer and stuffing them underneath!
No 245-70-16 M/T R's.

Ryan's new MTR's now have custom colored lettering as well.
You can easily get your finger in between these grooves!

Keep em rotated and @ 40+ psi & you should get good life from the new shoes.

[Minimike]
