Yokohama Geolander's

 

Owned Terra's in 33 they were a good overall tire. I was not unhappy at all I just bought too small of a tire
Went 35" trail graps 6 months later and no regrets. Added bonus featur the low hum noise puts my toddler to sleep pretty quick.

 

Thanks guys, i went with the Trail Grapplers 285/70R17 also have the KMC Rockstar Rims coming as well. I dont have a lift, so I think the 33's will be fine from reading the thread. I have less than 2K miles on the Jeep, so be curious to see. Looks like I will have to get the tool to recali the spedometer. Thanks for input, I'll be sure to post pics and feedback after the weekend.

 

Well I got the Rims and Tires put on today at BelleTire, and all I can say is now I own a Jeep. There is no rubbing with the Nitto Trail Grapplers on 285/70R17 Mounted on 17x9 KMC XD Rockstar Rims. The Jeep looks awesome, this really did a great job to make it stand out. After I wash it this weekend, I will take pics and post. Also took it for road test on highway tonight, and like others I was shocked on little sound it made. Like others said you turn on the radio a little, and you cant hear at all.
So if anyone else is looking at these tires, go out and get them!

 

I'm looking at getting the 295/70/17 trail grapps (33.5") but I'm a little worried about loss in gas mileage and power (2011 JKU w/ 3.73s). Any input on this too?

 

Trail grapplers for sure. The only time mine are loud is after a tire rotation, but they always quiet down after a little while. That's normal with any tire though

 

I went with the same tires on my 2008 JKU Rubi with 4.10's, plus 2.5" lift. I lost 1-2 MPG but Superchipped it and am back close to stock MPG (if I keep my right foot out of it.) I have a manual though so I hear some of the Auto guys saying it is worse. I definitely feel a little power loss on big hills but the old minivan engine was never a dragster to start out with.

 

So far, pretty excited with my non lifted JK 2012 with 17X9 Rockstar 2's with Trail Grappler 285 70 17's ... Made all the difference... Still need a spare and a lift and about 1200 more bucks... LOL...

Baby steps... Baby steps.
