Yeah, these are just driveway shots, lol. The tires are 235/75/R16's which measure out to 29.9"x9.3" so they are VERY close to 30x9.5's.

Both of those are nice rides.

Prerunner, does yours have any lift or is that stock just like Jeepkid?

Looks good ....I agree I had 30's on my 99 classic before it was smashed no rubbing at any time. Also I have the same model and color just a 99 as my family hauler right now. I had the same problem with the faded molding and bumper end caps. I read that a heat gun works and makes them black again. So one day I tried my small propane torch on a small area on a low setting. To my surprise it makes it looks like new again, give it a try if you like.

Congratulations!!!

Very nice looking Cherokee! It looks that your overwhelming Love for XJ's has already paid off. Hope that you get years of reliable service from your purchase!

Might as well toss on a fresh set of 30's and possibly a BB now? You already know how this is gonna go...
