question: why swap the Grabbers for the Geolandars?

I like the new tire smell.. When its gone I must buy new!!

No, actually, they are smaller, weigh less, better on the road, and are not as loud.. Many reasons.. I didnt like the torque loss and went with a smaller size.. MPG loss.. Blah, blah.. O:)

There going on as we speak.. \:D/

But you will miss the beefy-ness which contributed to the "Yea I know my mpg ***** but look at these tires" and the "Yea, my torque is less, but who needs torque when these tires can rip it up through mud"

Good looking new tire though.

Thats true.. But I think about all the places I went on those crappy stock goodyears.. I know these will make me happy. Those grabbers were crazy awesome off road though! I never did get in a tight spot with them.

The geolanders are more aggressive than they look. Its the lighting in that pic.. Look at them here:

No, a good friend of mine does it for me and I put them on the jeep. Like Ive always said, I dont let anyone touch anything on my jeep unless its a must. O:) I really need an alignment but dont want anyone to touch my jeep. Much less drive it around and get poo all over the inside. They always leave grease on everything. :-s

So.. How do they look? :-s

believe it or not, still can't say much.. it is wet so it reflected a lot of light, and it is dark background.

we need a daytime pic from an angle with wheel turned out so we can see.

but as they stand piled up, it looks good with agressive pattern, however it still doesn't look like in the advertisement

3 and 4 !!! looks great. =D>
from further away you cannot really tell much, but at those shots you can see they do not compromise much.

Let us know how they drive after a while. Are they stained? may need a coat of meguires black dressing or the other one, because it doesn't look even.
