The old tread pattern can be bought for 800 for 4.

The new tread pattern doesn't seem to come in a 15" rim.

Both have Kevlar sidewalls.

There are some tires still sold in your size but most are not new technology.

You may need to get some 17" rims!

is there really much benefit in the new tread pattern? were would i be able to pick up a set of the old tread pattern.

also u saw my jk at the meet and greet (green) do you think it would benefit much by going to 37 from my 35 km2's?

I think you'd need more lift for 37's unless you get a shorter 37 inch tire. You'd probably need two inches or so to clear a true 37.

yea, i have some 1 inch spacers sitting in the cupord that coupled with a 1inch body lift would give me enough space. just not sure if it is worth the extra axle stress.
