It's pretty much my DD. My only other mode of transportation is my bike and you can only ride a few months out of the year. Also to go anywhere is pretty much a road trip. So I need a set of tires that will last and have a multi use function. I don't care for mud anyways. Snow, big trails, and mmmmmmmmmm rocks, it's what's for breakfast.

You might want to check with Gen Right. I know for the TJ they had whole stretch kits with fenders. I am not sure but they may be working on something for the JK.

I checked their website and they had nothing. I'll shoot them a email and see what they have planned.

Thanks

If you do any sort of slickrock trails then I wouldn't recommend BFG ATs. I wheeled in Moab with a guy who had them and they didn't hook up very well on the rocks (lots of wheelspin and clouds of white smoke).

The thing about BFG ATs is that they are made with an extremely hard rubber compound, so you're essentially trading off-road traction for longer treadlife.

Thanks for the input. I read somewhere that people were doing alright with them in Moab. I'll do some more research on it.

Green Machine-

Your signature answered your own question. How ironic. See below:


to be honest with you you could have bought a 4 door to get the added inches in wheelbase
