I am not having luck finding that MTR I need. And I don't want to buy a whole set of used or much less new 31s. I'm hoping to go up in tire size, but need to lift more also and bla bla bla.

Do you think WL can be run on 235s?

it can be run with a stock xj with precision spotting on some parts which kyle dustin or myself can help you on. but definitely you will hit diffs a few times. let me look around i might be able to help out.

Another thing DJ, it doesn't really have to be a MTR, honestly. You just need a tire that is the same size as your others, with good tread. I know you're wanting a MTR, but any tire would do the trick!!

Yeah, definitely any tire would do! What I was planning on doing, was since my 2 fronts are bald, and my spare is brand new. I was hoping to get a new(er) 31 and put that along w/my spare in the rear, and move the rears (which are about 30%) to the front. And use one of the bald fronts for an emergency spare to limp off trail if need be.

Which leads me to my other question guys. Is it ok to have 2 new(er) tires in rear and 2 used tires in front and be in 4lo?

Thx
