Nice. I really liked the rims that you had on it originally. But it looks great with 31s. Is it your first vehicle. Mine is and I paid 750 for it.

i would take the tail lights you have now, get some VHT nightshade and sand paper and some clear coat and paint them! i think it would look kinda cool


$20 and you get a brand new set of lights!

Do you have any problems running the 31s without a lift?? Thinking about doing it next time I need tires. I have to get rid of these awful timberlines I have in the back. Way too light duty.

Yeah just wondering. I will probably end up using these crap timberlines till I get a little dough in my pocket. Even fully inflated they ride on the sidewall a bit.

I only payed 750 for the Jeep. I will probably just do a JY lift and used tires from my local tire place.
