    anyone running LT 10 ply tires on their ride

    I just looked at the yokohama's in a 255/70 . s.w. 10.2, tread width 8.0, o.d. 31.3. these are a passenger tire, much higher load rating than original HP's. what r the chances of getting these under a OME lift with factory wheels ?

    anyone running LT 10 ply tires on their ride

    ya , im not liking what the tire dealer said about it being bumpy. but both the duratrac245/70 and yokohama 245/70 are both load range E, and thise were choices #1 and #2 respectively.

    anyone running LT 10 ply tires on their ride

    thanks for all the quick replies . u know , my first car was a cj-7 and the first thing i did to it was replace the 235/75/15 wrangler's with 31x10.5 super diggers and remember thinking how much greater the thing cornered. (did not change any suspension bits). i bet those were LT tires. if...

    Rustys

    OME coils seems to be the preferred route,for improved ride and handling as well as lift, u will spend more money though, roughly $305 for the coils.

    OME/Bilstein lift

    Ive been reading ur thread about your lift install, ur jeep looks great. and your tires, surprisingly dont look too small, i see people been bugging u that u need some man tires. i say surprisingly because i was worried that 245/70/17 would look too small on mine after lift. No disrespect or...

    how much actual lift from OME light duty's ?

    well , my idea was to get light duty to bring the fender lower over the tire.245/70. plan#2 is........go for medium duty and 255/70/17 , only thing is duratracs dont come in that size.and the duratracs specs show they are wider than any of the 255 size tires out there, thats why i was sold on...

    Are JBA a-arms necessary for alignment ??

    ya, went alright, i only had to do the disassembly. was at the dealer ordering a bolt for the clevis and happened to see the service manager, mentioned to him what happened and he covered it under warranty. funny, two weeks before he said cv's were not covered while i was on a road test with...

    Are JBA a-arms necessary for alignment ??

    great, thats what i wanna hear, i will most likely do the same,when UBJ's go, then i will just buy the arms, but right now i dont have the budget for more than just the lift and tires.

    Are JBA a-arms necessary for alignment ??

    i just got my bilstein's and will be ordering my OME medium coils within the next week or two,and tires as soon as lift is installed. Cant find it now (figures) but i saw a thread saying that after lifting i wont be able to get fully into proper alignment without also buying JBA's a-arms...
