Tires to replace stockers fo wife's daily driver.
I picked my wife up a used 2007 Jeep JK Unlimited this weekend and it needs some tires.
Even though it will be her daily driver I am leaning towards something fairly aggressive mainly for looks. I want to stay close to stock size because I would rather not regear, and am not really willing to loose any more power out of the already anemic stock 3.8L V6.
255/75-17 is stock. Thinking of a 265/70-17.
I was leaning towards a Bridgestone Dueler Revo since I have had great luck on them on my work and personal trucks....but would like somehting a bit more aggressive.
Thoughts or opinions?

Go for one of the more aggressive AT's. The Goodyear DuraTrac is very popular, but a bit on the expensive side. Nitto Terra Grapplers are another good choice, and at least when I got my set, quite a bit less expensive than the BFG and Goodyear AT's.
If you plan to do any off road driving, I'd go with an aggressive AT tire. You can't go wrong with the Goodyear Duratracs. However, they are relatively expensive. You can opt for another tire (from a Goodyear owned company) and buy the Kelly Safari TSR. It is also an aggressive AT, and in no way inferior to the Goodyear. However, it costs about $40 less per tire. Either tire is outstanding in snow.
I would go with what you know and stick with the Dueler AT Revo 2's. I have them and they are excellent in all weather and conditions including ice and snow. Like you, I started out with them on my truck and now have a set on my Jeep. They are plenty aggressive for a daily driver and are quiet as can be.

Absolutely love my "Revos"...!!! They are wearing fantastic (still like new with lots of miles on them), quiet, and ride real nice. Probably the best AT I've ever ran on snow and ice up here in Alaska.
