My New Shoes	Permalink

Just thought I'd show you all my new rims/tires. They are 35" Maxxis Bighorns. Rims are 15x8 with 3.75" BS. Overall I was extreamly impressed with how they performed this weekend. __________________ '93 XJ Cherokee Sport - build thread '89 XJ Cherokee Laredo - build thread '88 MJ Comanche Pioneer SWB - build thread '87 MJ Comanche LWB '94 YJ Wrangler - build thread

Very nice! I originally thought those were TSL's from the other photos. Glad I didn't embarass myself. What pressure were you running in those in the snow on Sat.? Did you air those down a bit? __________________ 99 XJ with a bunch of stuff put on by somebody else Unimog 406 My Pics and Specs

You won't find me running TSL...

I actually didn't air down at all. I ran them at 32psi all weekend.

It looks like mine on steroids! (same paint, stock height 96 Country) What are you running and how do they work in the conditions you've been in so far? (I have a post-turned-sticky on this @ JU) link-> http://www.jeepsunlimited.com/forums/showthread.php?t=799993

Of course not...

On the street I am fine. When I'm flexing I do rub a bit in the rear, but I didn't have time to trim back thier prior to Haspin. When I trim up I'll be fine. I am going to order the DPG bumpstop plates as well, so I can make sure I'm bumpstopped correctly in the rear untill I get the new rear leafs in.
