So what is the deal with the tire saying you can run 65 psi?

That is a max psi. Just because you can put 65 psi in the tire doesn't mean you should.

Hey Thanks. Can I get you opinino on lights? If I am looking for lights mainly to help in snow and rain, should I go with KC Slimlites as fog or driving?

I personally went with dual beam PIAA lights. They have a yellow beam for fog and weather and a white driving light for clear conditions and all in the same light housing.

They are doing to be mounted on a MBRP gril guard upside down. Can the stone guards be flipped and did you go with the 520 or 525?

I have the 525s, but they are not supposed to be mounted upside down. The yellow would face high and the white would face low.

Yeah, that wouldn't work, so should I go with fog or driving? I know the Piaa 520 or the yellow ion lights but I don't know if the covers can be flipped. I have had the Piaa on my wrangler but they were right side up.

If you get a lot of fog in your area that's what I would go with if not, I would consider the driving lights.

Thanks for all you help. I think I will go with the driving lights.
