hehe I really like the mud terrains that came on my rubicon, anything that wants to kill my tires has to be nearly 2 inches before it even hits the bottom of the tread (theyre new so they arent worn down to nublings yet!)

i aggree whole heartedly with the windshield issues, i went with a rugged ridge hood mounted bug/rock deflector shield, just put in on tonight, it didnt fly off doing 80 so it should be good! not sure if its helping with bugs yet though hehe. i do hope it helps with future rocks, even though i have full insurance, constant wind shield replacements would be a drag, and hard on the premiums

I'm with you in the magnetic tires. 13 JKU Sahara. I have a plug in my, now spare, and got lucky with the other metallic objects. They only got to the tread. Whew. This has been my worst vehicle for tire punctures. With less than 4K on her, and multiple tire/tread invasions, I was wondering what tires to get next to help with his issue.
