I don't have a clue what ply they are. They probably say, but I'm too lazy to go look. They are the Government issue tires that come with the 8 bolt H1 wheels. I got a good deal on them as a set, that's the only reason I got them, along with the fact that all 4 have good tread. They pretty much will suck in any type of terrain though.

Thanks. I almost forget what it's like to know how that feels, since it's been almost a year now since it went into the garage. I'll remember soon enough, hopefully.

Long time to be without, but it will be worth the wait. Your ans are 37 Iroks like mine. I cut the crap outta mine, but mines a trail rig only. I plan on going to 39's soon. I know a guy with an XJ on D60's and 42's.

Yeah, the Iroks will be on it soon enough and will definitely be nice. I know I will have to trim more, but I don't care since it's also a trail rig. I won't be going above 37's on this. My truck is the next thing to go under the knife though.

37's are plenty big enough for an XJ. In person mine is HUGE for a small suv. My pic is beside my K5 sitting on 38.5 TSL's and a 6in lift and it's a few inches shy of towering over it lol. I'm going bigger than 37's because my rig does half the 5's at parks but the rest is because my tires are so small.


I hate tiny tires, MUST GO BIGGER!!!

Well, finally on all 4 tires. With taking a promotion at work and school starting I haven't had ANY time to work on it at all. Today RDK_YJ88 and I finally did and we accomplished exactly what we set out to do, get it on all 4 tires and out of the garage.

Now just have to finish steering, brakes, gears, and align the front a little bit.
