Default 1st set of replacement tires

I have ordered a set of TreadWright 285-65-18's on to my stock wheels.
I have a set of 1-1/4" wheel spacers going on at the same time this Thur.

I had been researching and watching vids on both subjects and would like to thank all of the JK members for their positive and objective views on these matters ,they have been most helpful.

I will post some pics of my green machine pre and post mod to illustrate the diff in stance and appearance by this weekend. From what I have already seen out there I am confident that I and many others will be pleased with the outcome.

I welcome feedback on these mods but please be gentle, this is my 1st thread

I think you'll be happy w/ the TW's! Are you going w/ Wardens (AT) or Guard Dogs (MT)? I've been very happy w/ my Guard Dogs and, in fact, will be ordering a set of 315's just as soon as they make them.

TreadWright sure makes 18's more attractive, huh? I might even change wheels on my pickup next tire change (go from 17's to 18's) because of TW.

Thanks guys for your welcome and kind words
I had ordered the Warden AT's and you are correct , tslewisz, they do make it hard to by originals
I just have to put a 1 or 2" bb lift on her and I think the stance will be just right.

Any suggestions on a mild bb?
