That's a lot of mall crawling right there.

As mentioned I have about 40k on mine. Here was a pic from a few weeks ago of the 40k ones and a new one.

Appreciate the pics it's nice to actually see them. But that's pretty good for that aggressive tread pattern.

I have a fairly light two door (no tire carrier, no rear bumper). Mileage would be less on a heavier four door.

I said fairly light two door. Not fairly light frame.

You know I could probably get away with it if I trimmed the pinch seam and cut the fenders or went with some flat fenders :cheesy: but I am going to be patient. I just ordered the EVO JK Enforcer Pro Stage 1 Coilover / draglink flip / front lower control arm kit from Northridge 4x4 and just have to save up for the re-gear and ATX Slabs and I should be good to go.

Looking at the same tire but in 35/12.5/17. Why is it some Discount Tires will mount them on stock rubicon rims and others won't?

I'm having to work around that right now. They say for legal reasons. The tire spec calls for a min wheel width of 8.5" and the stock wheels are 7.5"

How are you working around it? Are you taking it to a mom and pop tire place? I really want to be able to have the road hazard warranty.

That's the same route I'm going with my '15 unlimited. Just ordered ATX Chamber Pro II's, EVO Enforcer Pro and tires are next. Only think I'm worried about is the Dana 30, I'll have to do something about that, lol! Can't wait to see it all together!

We will only install tires on wheels that fall within our approved rim width recommendations; this goes for all our locations. Your safety is our number one priority and we want you to get the most out of your tires. Sticking within the approved rim width ranges reduces heat build up in your tires and heat is your tires worst enemy. Excessive heat can lead to faster wear and increased chances for separations and tire failures.*
We'd love to help you get a wider tire under your JK safely so if you are interested in upgrading your wheels too please let us know. We'll do the best we can to make you a great deal.

Yes. Essentially I know a guy that knows a guy that can get the tires for the same cost as DT and will mount them.
The other solution costs a bit more is more local but again I know a guy that knows the manager of a chain tire shop that will do it also.
