Ride Quality
I just put 35x12.50 BFG KM2's on my 2dr. Rubi and am very happy with the ride quality but have noticed that the jeep seems to want to stray a little. What I mean is it seems I constantly have to be moving the steering wheel back and forth to keep the jeep going straight. I did set my toe in 1/8" like I read somewhere. Any ideas? Also, I'm running 30 psi for now.
Thanks

Earlier thread that gives all the possible options. In my humble opinion, it's just one of the differences of getting big, wide tires that don't like to sit well in highway grooves. Airing down helps, but nothing makes it the same as riding on stock tires. Wait until you hit a few 30-40 mph cross winds at 70 mph for the first time. It will make your rear end pucker.

This is interesting, as I have found the same issue somewhat since lifting and putting on 33's. I don't have what I consider as road wander, but I do notice I have to move the wheel slightly most of the time to keep a straight track. It can be a bit frustrating at times, and I have found nothing that will prevent it.
I run 38's and don't have any wandering problems (except with the cross winds mentioned above) while driving at either slow speeds or high speeds. I do have a JKU and I do have a long arm kit on my jeep. I'm not sure if that makes a difference...
