I am about ready to upgrade my tires, gonna go with 32s. I was wondering if anyone had a spare 32 they'd be willing to sell? I just dont feel like buying 5 wheels cuz I don't feel like pulling the trigger on some meats that will end up costing me more than what I paid for my XJ. I don't care what kind of tire, just in good shape on a 15 inch rims would be perfect.
Everyone wish me luck i am going to try and talk the wife into letting me trade in the mini van for a subaru impreza wagon tonight to take to england with us, then buy her a car when we get back! we will see how it goes i am guessing i will get shot down but i figure its worth a shot.

Good luck with that, I remember taking a mini van to Germany and that did not work well at all. Tell her that logic is going to side with the smaller vehicle, some side roads and city areas demands it. Square peg, round hole.

that wont work man unfortunately they sell and drive chrysler town and country minivans in England cause the roads are big enough, however i know for a fact that she likes it for the room but not anything else, i am gonna see what i can do. On the plus side its an automatic so who knows i may be able to do some sweet talkin. I know she wants another SUV cause she likes/wants 4wheel drive so i will probably buy her another Grand Cherokee when we get back since i totaled hers and she loved it, It was beautiful..inferno red pearl, limited with every option...was about to get a 4 inch lift in a couple months and some bigger tires and just had 1500 dollars of engine work done i almost bawled like a little baby once everything calmed down and i was lookin at it...man i miss that jeep almost more then my xj..mostly cause my butt gets cold driving to work now..lol
That sucks man, those GC's were sweet. Dude a Jeep is a Jeep, I like em all...except those stupid step-children cars called Compass and Patriot. I almost bought a Grand Cherokee but got a truck instead, I needed the towing and hauling capability. I was surprised with the capability of the Commander. My folks bought the Overland edition with all the bells and whistles and aside from it looking sweet, it is a pretty capable off roader. It's got some super computerized version of the quadradrive that has too many nannies though. But Jeep does like to put the butt warmers in their vehicles now. I could've used a heated seat and steering wheel last night, I was driving my XJ to the gas station and froze my *** off. That electric fan conversion works too well sometimes, and I have to keep adjusting it to get the engine temp above 100 during cold weather, and low engine temp means no heat. Plus a leather steering wheel...brrr.

Should'a got the GC man i towed my 96 when i had it from arizona over the passes at 80-85 with cruise on no problem GC didn't even know it was there and that was bumper pull on the front of the cherokee, not a trailer, may have been worse with a trailer, but i don't know.

Yeah, the GC had me torn. But I ended up getting an '09 F150. That thing is a beast. I tested it one day off road, had it air-born and it rode like a caddy...plus it can tow up to 10,000 lbs. I can't wait to lift that beast 6". Only thing is the transmission is irritating the crap out of me. I either am not used to a 6 speed auto or the comp on it likes weird shift patterns.

Hmmm...that would for sure blow my tranny and snap my 35. I would do it, if it weren't for the fact that I'm tight on cash right now. I'm trying to track down some old style Wrangler MTR's that aren't the stupid kevlar bs tread ones. Found two 31's brand new. Need two more.

my buddy got one of the kevlar's as a replacement to his KM2 from discount cause they didn't have any it looks like it is a good tire, its his spare, but it looks good.
