They did great. I was aired down to 15 in the front and 13 in the rear. i was expecting some slippage on the soaking wet granite boulders, but they gripped well. They cleaned out well in the mud. The sidewalls took a couple hits, but it only scuffed them. even on the short 5 mile commutes on the highway at 13 PSI at 55mph, they felt very solid. I think DC got a winner with this tire. We shall see how they do in winter and down in Moab(hopefully october for the NAXJA 35th anniversary)
Good to hear. Seriously considering them for my next set of tires. Thinking 33x10.5 or a skinny 35.
you wont find a 35 any skinnier than 12.5 unless you get a set of Interco Tires or a Nitto in a 20" rim, same with a 36. I would run a 33x10.5 personally.

Considering 255/85r16's too if I stay with "33's" they're e plys though...

Wasn't Brandon S making replacement brackets for the MJ?
I've been giving Doug a steady shipping job. Napier flare set #3 !!! The rears dont open up as much as I wanted on the Mj since they are technically 2dr XJ rears, I'll have to flex it out and see if the 35s still fit, otherwise i may need to do some retrofitting.
here's some daylight pictures. Bear in mind, i cut my fenders up allot higher than the instructions called for. when cut to instruction, the flare sit lower on the body line, especially the rears. Napier flares are such a cinch to install.
Took advantage of Dirtbound offroad's Black friday sale and snagged a set of Shortbed MJ sliders. We'll see how they fit! they are built to order, so it may take a couple weeks.
