I have the same opinion skinny is better on and off road. The only tires that I have found in the extreme skinny and narrow is the interco narrow ss.. It is a special service mud Tire...sizes are 34x9x16 and r15. Tread width actually Mayors about 7 inches wide. Out is a tsr..three stage lug. Almost one inch of tread depth. Tire weight is 54 lbs. Not speed to be great on wet pavement but everywhere else it is told to excel. LOOK Mean too

They're great tires except for wet pavement. I had the SSRs on my truck and had the rear slide out from under me. I really liked them but I doubt I'll ever own another set.

Goodyear has MT/Rs in 35.1x11.3 (285/75r18) in an 18 inch wheel. I have AEV Savegre's and BFG KM2 285/75r17s on order, but I'm thinking of going with the 18" mopar steelies (like on the overland jeep, but 1 inch larger) and the MTRs. What do you think?

It sounds like you guys have already done the homework. I want to use my stock JK rims (plasti dip looks nice). What is the tallest I can go without needing spacers, lifts, or budget boost. Im looking for something a little more aggressive than just the SRA's that came on it. I dont want it to rub.
