    I like mine a LOT in 33 10.5 on 15x8 Eatons. What size did you go with?

    15X8" wheels with 33x12.5x15 tires. It's the same size I have now. I really wanted 17" wheels but I couldn't get them with the right offset. I need a 3 3/4" or -19 offset.

    Order came in and I went to pick them up. What do you think? I think it gives it more of a modern look. Should be easy to clean. [​IMG]

    Looks great Scott. I have KM2's on my Tacoma and have been really impressed with them. I have just over 40K miles on them right now and I feel like I will get at least another 20K.

    I'm not sure what load range those are, but mine are E, so I have to run the pressure really low if I want to soften the ride. Considering the light weight of your Jeep, you'll probably have to go REALLY low on the pressure.

    They are the same size as my old tires. I ran them at 25 psi for years. So with the new ones. I guess I'll just keep the same pressure.

    Looks great. I don't drive my A1 on the road, and they are load range C, so at the 10 psi I run them at it's Cadiallac smooth! With the 35 12.5 BFG MT's on my Jimmy I ran them at 25 pounds as well. But with an extra 1000# on your jeep, you might be able to run less. I ran 22 with the Mickey Thompson's. Those pressures resulted in excellent tire wire.
