No flaming allowed!Ok, I'm gonna get flamed, but here goes.
I want the tires big and mean because it looks cool. My Jeep is a weekend toy that I put the kids into and drive around town and to the beaches. I do some light mud puddle jumping, that's about it.
Suspension flex not a big worry as long as it can handle the occasional speed bump.
There I said it.
I have been laughed at in other Jeep forums for admitting that my Jeep is used this way, so let me say I'm a true Jeep lover and have been for 30 years. There is nowhere here legal to ride off road and I am lucky enough to own a rust free, solid, everything works, fun, mostly original, V8 CJ. I'm chicken of busting it all up the way I did my last 2 CJ's. I want to keep this nice like it is the rest of my life and have neither the money or desire to replace axels, etc. from the carnage of heavy off road driving.
So I want some big tires because I like the way it looks.

You want looks! Kewl! Super Swampers are the ones you need!

You will NEVER get treated that way here...I have been laughed at in other Jeep forums for admitting that my Jeep is used this way
