I have been running a set of 39.5/18/16 bogger on the wrangler for about 6 months and for mud and climbing I LOVE them. BUT when I am driving sidways on a hill they like to slide out from under me a little. They don't have good sideways tread on them. I personaly would only have them for mud and thats it. I really really LOVE Pit Bull tires and the BFG crawlers are good also.

If you are going to do it I would probably do the back also because your back will be sliding sidways down the hill also

I stopped by a buddy of mines tonight and he just so happen done his on his buggy a few weeks back, nice pattern, one groove on each lug and he said it made a big diffrence in laterial and all around traction. I snagged his groover and gonna start markin mine tomorrow how i want em.

I know this is an old thread but I somehow came across it and the title cought my eye. Just to let you know I have been running 39.5 Boggers that are cut. They work great on the rocks. My buddy runs them on his wrangler also and has no problems.

Dang id forgot all about this thread... Sense this, i have kept the Boggers, made templates and grooved them. I like that design on yours SoonerXJ.. Some hate em, but at times when i started to sell mine, everyone around here said id be crazy to get rid of em, so ive held on to em, eventually will get to try em out, heres my groovage..


I used a #4 blades, wished id went with a #5, but it'll do..
