Right on.... are they no-lift or standard? They don't make the shackles hang way below the body, so it's hard to tell.

how you like those extreme country's? I've been hearing from customers from the shop that the fun country's are the better performers so I'm not due which to go with..i was going to try them out because I haven't tried dick cepek. Just had mickeys on my truck and sold them so I'm looking to pick some. I usually rotate out a few different sets of tires but I only have one set of rims for my truck now haha

I've been very happy with them. It's kind of hard to compare the Fun Country against the Extreme Country, I mean you're talking to different classes of tires. They've done everything that I've wanted them to do. They're good on the road, sand, light mud, heavy mud, they clean out well, I've got no complaints. And at that price point they're hard to beat. These are going up for sale though with less than 3,000 miles on them. I'm moving up to 35s.

I mean, yeah but not much. The fun country's are a hybrid, but lean mostly on the mt side. I work at a tire shop so I try out a variety of tires for extremely cheap. But you know you have fanboys of all brands that will only get that brand. The dick cepek guys tell me the fun country's are the better performers all around. And I guess I can see that. And looking at the prices our distributors have, the fun country are $30 more per tire haha....the hybrids usually cost more then the flat out mt versions, but the dick cepeks have the largest gap. Just found that a bit interesting.

Dad bought the Jeep back while I was highschool for $800 sometime around 2007. It's been mine since 2010.
