Yeah I never drive mine on the highway even though its daily driver, only do under extreme circumstances drive it on highway haha. These super swamper TSL 31s came with my jeep and my next set will definently be All Terrains, probably 30s. Definently looking into Falken Wildpeak A/T's but I do a lot of street driving so
maybe Yokohoma Geolanders or Firestone Destinations.

Haha. My girl is actually a really good sport about it all. She finally agreed that I need a Winch. I want a Warn 8000 with a burnt motor so i can put a 9500 motor it will pull close to 15000 with those gears and that motor.

I have Hankook Dynapro MTs in 33x12.50 and they are AWESOME. they're quieter on road than my old AT's and are ridiculous off road! I broke my front driveshaft yesterday and got through everything in 2wd that an XJ that was locked both ends was working hard in

Makes me wish I'd gotten pictures of my buddy's YJ stuck in the mud today. Got a message today asking if after work I could pull a friends freshly locked (front&rear) YJ on 35" Boggers out of some mud.. well this was the first time me and my XJ gave up on a recovery and called in the neighbours backhoe (which had to fight it's way out a few times lol). Definitely makes me wish there was a backhoe around for EVERY recovery! haha

Not yet I ended up having to go out of town for work. The plan is to backhoe today hopefully. I'm just glad I haven't put all my new U joints and bearings under it yet. Ill post some more pictures when we go back to get it.
