Will I notice much difference between 225 & 235? There's not too much of a price difference, but if I can save a little & not feel a difference in ride then I'm all for it

Yea 225s are fine for daily driving if that's all you plan on doing... The 235 feel like they ride better but the 225s where pretty much the same... Depends on what tires you plan on buying...

It shows up as a choice for my vehicle. Other than tread design, I can't tell the difference between road/off road. My XJ is 2WD so I don't need an aggressive tread design.

Well to be honest if you plan on staying on road 95% of the time they should be fine and I just noticed your in fla so no snow I have no experience with that tire brand or model... As long as the speed and load rating are correct you should have no worries with the 225 but in the end you get what you pay for...

i definatly wouldnt put those on a jeep, but thats just my opinion,

3 years experience working in tire shops, not only will you not be saitisfied with the performance, they wont last long at all. when it comes to tires, the bottom line is you get what you pay for, spend a few extra dollars on something rated for your vehicle and you will be alot happier with the outcome.

Speed & load are the same as the $110 Goodrich SUV/crossover tires. I think I'll order a set then. Thanks for your input.

Frank, those are 85k mile warranty. The "best" tires from the seller are only 60k & the 2 most expensive are only 50k.

I'm not sure if they warranty the tires up to 85k you have to ask the tire place...

The store honored the 85k warranty & I'm pleased with the tires. They're definitely not off-road, but I'm fine with that.
