Everyone I know that had those tires hated them. Just do a search for "XTerrain" and you will see what I mean. Personally, I would add an extra $300 and have a really nice set. my 2cents

I had several friends steer me away from those and towards the Pro-comp ATs.

I love them and have had no issues other than it took me a while to discover I needed to run my fronts at 40lbs and the rears at 36lbs.

I swapped mine thru the steelership and they gave me seceral hundred ( I think it was 400 but I forget) back on the original 32" wranglers that came with it. They had a package deal to by 3 and get the 4th free but I needed 5 so I bought 3 1/2 and got 1 1/2 free. Saved a LOT of money that way and I've never regretted the tires.

BTW Pro-Comp is one of I think only 2 brands left that make offroad tires in the USA. The other strangely enough is yokohama.
90% of ALL offroad tires are now made in China :(

93% off ALL tires are too :(

Buy American if you can.

Good luck and happy Jeep'n!

Just go to www.onlinetires.com and get the 35x12.5x18 Nitto Mud Grapplers. They look bad azz and are great tires.
