Got the Kicker speakers installed up front. It was sort of a pain to unscrew/screw the speakers. At least i know no one will be stealing them. Then went for a little offroading right after with my mom. She hadn't been in the jeep since i only had tires, so i took her through a field and in a shallow section of a pond. She freaked out a bit but it was fun. Speakers sound good, i actually have some bass now. Now just have to work on getting the rest of the Kicker upgrade system a piece at a time.

As for tires vs winch....I would feel awful making the wife pay that much for tires (if i had one). So i vote winch. Winch will get you out of bad situations when whatever tires you have cant. and Goodyear MTR/K in 37 inch is 315 a piece..i need to get saving.

Favorite wheels, dream choice of axles, want to do a coilover set up eventually, PSC makes my favorite armor stuff for jeeps right next to Offroad evolution...see...we would make a great adoption team!

Your jeep is amazing. Its going to be a beast when its done...even though its a beast now. You are doing a great build.

They are the ones that 4 wheels parts insisted was the biggest I could go with "without a lot of modifacations" But yeah if your looking at 37's then these are not even on your radar.
I got my KM2's from there also. got 305/70/16. So they are considered 34's. I wouldnt even mind 35's, but as for more ground clearance and all that i like 37's. But then with 37's come the issues of the D30...so thats where i like PR60 axles...but that costs money and I cant be living in my mom and dads house forever. Maybe once i get out of college and got my career going.

yeah, 4 wheel parts told me you couldnt fit much more than that size under a stock JK, i told them there are guys running 35's stock. So i showed them a picture on the forum site, and we settled on 305/70/16. I was happy.
