Will the dealer try and give ms $hit about having wide tires when I complain that it takes quite a bit of supervision to keep the jeep going straight? It did it when I test drove it with factory 18's.

 

They might. I will be interested in seeing what they say.

 

If it did this on the test drive, why didn't you deal with it then?

 

You might swap back on the originals just in case.

 

cause I'm a dumbass....I thought it might be just me (i'm pretty picky) coming out of a f150 with rack and pinion (it was effortless to drive straight) but I have read on here about excess freeplay in the steering which would cause my having to saw the wheel back and forth when I get too close to a painted line.

 

caster is off I would bet. The dealer should not give you any hassles to align with "wide" tires and if they do find a new dealer.
