I put a set of 30x9.50 15s on my 89 XJ sport. I am impressed. I swapped out my Goodyear Wrangler 235/75s and really like the ride. I literally drive this jeep in all conditions. It is my daily driver as well as my adventure rig. It has gotten great gas mileage up to this point so I will see if these hurt me there.
Big semi Aggressive tread blocks with large spacing. I paid 650 installed, there were cheaper tires but these had a three year road hazard/replacement plan.
I had them out in the rain and puddles today, the preformed great. I never lost traction. I hit big washing puddles in the flooded streets all morning at different speeds with ZERO slipping.
Next weekend I'll hit the trails and update this. I might try to find some mud in the morning and let you know

 

I didn't know they still made those and the size difference is prolly less than an inch so mpg won't change much.

 

Looks like you have a little sag in the rear

 

I have those same tires on my ZJ and they work great! They clean out very well and have not lost grip in any type of terrain I've been in. They ride nice and are quiet on the road. They're a great tire made by Cooper Tire.

 

Took them out to Azusa Canyon for some mud. Crossed a couple creeks, climbed some hills played in the sand and over rocks before making it to the muddy reservoir. Must say, these tires really preformed. I expected to get a little stuck, but not once. Deep mud and ruts no problem. Creek crossing was a breeze. I had a ball. Great tires all around. Looking for some snow now.


And the sag in the rear is due to the gear that is packed in it. My jeep is always gassed full and loaded with enough supplies to escape the city in a few minutes time. Kind of my Bug-out vehicle.

 

by no mean advanced tech... moving to cherokee chat...

 

Why? Cause my XJ doesn't have an exo? just figured since the tires weren't stock. Guess I was feeling a bit more advanced than I am, lol

 

Lol... Excited I know bud... Just wasnt even a question so all the showing off goes in chat... Lol... Looks good though man!

 

PS... Save for that exo next

 

Lol gotcha. No hard feelings. I'm just jealous I don't have a exo, or a roll bar for that matter.

 

Money... With money comes toys... Do whatever ya gotta do to make money down the rd and youll have your cage... Lol... Although youll be pissed to know I only have about $50 in mine... Lol... Bought a parts jeep with it and everything I kept I divided up and bascally paid $50 for each item... Including fuel cell... Sye 231... lol... All $50 each... Lol

 

I hate you.

My XJ is my daily driver. All my "money" goes to guns, lol. So I could never really justify a cage. Not on this one at least. My only fully expendable vehicle is an '85 wrangler that I have had high hopes for for some time. I really want to cage that but it needs a lot of more pressing work first.
