Seems I can go two routes, real expensive made to fit, or cheap cut to fit. Given they're going to be getting all sorts of trash on them and this isn't a show car, I'm leaning towards cut to fit. So that said, does anyone have any brand recommendations that you like?

 

I don't know if you mean mats like carpet or mats like "rubber". If you mean rubber get the fitted Weather Tech.
they do a great job of collecting the salty snow etc etc and you can dump the stuff out.
Your floor pans will thank you when they don't rust out

 

A vote for Husky floor mats. Fit great and are easy to clean.

 

When I checked with weather tech, they no longer offered them for the 84-96 cherokee.

 

I'll check them out, thanks.

 

I've had the Rugged Ridge mats for 7 years. I like them.

 

With Nodak1 on this one.
Have had mine for 12+ years now.
No idea what they cost these days but back then $145 for front, back, and cargo which at the time was about 1/2 the price of the WeatherTechs so.....

 

I love the Rugged Ridge mats. They fit perfect and save my carpets.

 

I love my Rugged Ridge great fit.

 

Cheap menards what evers on sale. Usually armour all or splash type stuff $25 kinda stuff. I've had others and wore em out.
