Looking for input on what would be good wheels and tires for doing some wheeling. I've looked into the American Racing's 767's. Any ideas on tires? I've looked into Kumho's ROAD VENTURE MT KL71.

lift it high enough to fit 20" wheels, and get the smallest tires you can, and use double wheel spacers front and back! Just kidding man, we gots to know what you're looking to do with 'em, I like steel wheels personally, black too

Yeah this is going to be my daily driver for now. I'm not looking to do anything to extreme yet, like Moab or anything, just want it to look beastly, and be able to so some crawling.

I have Cooper Discoverers STT's, on my jeep. (I love 'em, and would buy them again) There a great mud/snow tire, without that much road noise. I highly recommend them. There about the same price as Kumho's. Every set of Kumho's I've ever seen, seem to ware out quit early...................................JMO!

I LOVE my KL71's!! I have em mounted on soft 8's. They're damn near silent on the street, awesome in rain, awesome in snow, and kick *** in the mud!
