Well apparently the tires I got are pretty crappy. LOL Great!!!!! :|

 

Yeah I hope its something simple too!
And I think they will look pretty good!
Are you gonna paint the wheels black?
What kind of tires are they?

 

Yeah Gonna do black and maybe a red lip or something. They are TSL Thornbirds. awful review online. Id say 80% hate them, 20% love them.

Do you happen to have a tire groover? I heard they are close to unstoppable if they are grooved a little bit. Here are some pics.

 

I do not have a tire groover...
I actually think I have heard of them on here or maybe Jeepforum, with mixed reviews but I think you should be better then the old tires

Also I have an idea for whats causing the issue on the new XJ issues, a possible bad/stuck open injector. It make sense why it only happens sometimes, and everything else is fine, and also I think when driving the smoke was the worst at idle, but I couldn't really tell whats was going on behind me so I didn't notice...
Good thing the old motor full rail and injectors were left in the back of it

 

Wouldnt your plug be dirty if you had a stuck injector?

Put some of that stuff that removes water from your gas in with your fuel. In case its the water problem.

But IMHO I think its the head gasket. :\ I dont wanna tell you that anymore then you wanna hear it but it just might be.

 

Haha it is ironic that they were left in there and I got them all swapped out and it did cut the smoke down a little. I actually only checked one of the plugs so it was probably a good injector. After running it for about 30 mins just in the driveway and around the block everything still checked out and fluids were still all good but I heard a slight whistle, and found a vacuum line going to the main canister/resevior just stopped and the resevior/black plastic ball under the bumper missing..
Which explains my heat controls not working and causing the engine to run rich from dumping fuel..
So I hope when I can find a new vacuum ball and get the line fixed, that should do it!

 

Could always hit up pull a part and get one.

 

Yeah I was going to go to the Cleveland West pull-a-part but checked what a dealership cost was, and there comp was down but he thought it was like $12. So I am going to call tomorrow since I have the day off and if they are cheap get one, and if not hit up the pull-a-part since I need a rear-view mirror and a few interior trim pieces too.

 

Thats cool if it's cheap.

When are you getting it inspected?

 

Yeah cheap is good
Inspected for the title transfer? Well my dad forgot to mail the title out to me today, so its going out tomorrow, so as soon as I get that, I can get it inspected and get a temp tag to drive her around!

 

Nioce!

I'm wondering what's gonna happen when I try to fit these tires in. they look massive. I hope the clear alright. I might need spacers.

What kind of tires are on your xj?

 

Are you going to try to fit them on without trimming at all?
I think those rims will look awesome when painted black with the red lip and add a nice personal touch to the XJ!

It has 33" BFG Mud-Terrians TA KOs

Those guys with a good 80% left

 

Well if you decide to go 31's don't forget about me. altho I think I'm gonna look for some 31/32 inch bfg a/t's for dding.

And I am gonna trim haha I'll have too. But I'll also have to replace the rear springs first. I just hope they don't rub on the control arms or anything else.

 

Haha I don't think I am going down to 31s after seeing these
With some trimming they should fit, just don't turn too hard!
Also what backspacing are those rims compared to stock?

 

I have no Idea. :\ What is stock? The guy said 3.5 or 3.75
