So I was pricing tires today and can't decide for sure on what tire to run with, I was going to just get a set of 37/14.50-15 but am thinking I am just going to stick with a 12.50 wide. I am looking at either super swamper irocks or pitbull rocker's in the 37/12.50-15 flavor............. What do you guys think?
They could be a option as well, no matter what I will be going with radials. I am planning on running my current 15x8 wheels and I don't think the 36's would be super happy on those wheels. The only way I will get new wheels 15x10's is if I go with my default toyo's I can get 5 toyo's/ 5 15x10 wheels for 1900 threw work which is about what just the irocks/rockers would cost alone for just the 5 tires! Why is life so full of choices......

It all comes down to where you wheel really, I would't trade my locker for anything! Sure you where going the same place the locked Yj was going but I am guessing you had to have a lot more wheel speed and momentum the bye did? Out here in the PNW you constantly have a tire in the air which is where it is really nice to have lockers! Plus they allow you to do stuff like this!

So out of the blue I decided to take my boy up to walker valley orv to play in the snow to day, we had a blast! there was plenty of snow to play in and lots of mud down low. So here are some pics from today, not the pics of me driving in the water is the deepest water I have ever driven in with the jeep (I need to check to see if my diff took on any water) it was deep enough to swallow my 35s and also to start filling my tube with water lol!

Since I had the door and side window I decided to take a little drive with it (40 degrees out) and man I can't wait to summer so I came keep it that way again I hate hate hate doors and the top! On a side note I let the wife drive it for the first time today..........mistake number 1 lol I think she in joyed it and may steal my keys ever now and again!

So I had to persuade the door back a hair along with trim back the panel but I now have the doors back on. The driver side door went on with out any mods, which is because the leg mount at the floor was pushed closer to the clutch to clear the ebrake!

No I went with the trail-gear rock defense sport cage!

The quality and and fit meant of he cage is great, I was going to go with the btf to until I saw the shipping cost! The trail-ready cage was 270 to my door which was a steal compared to the btf cage. I would recommend it to any one!
On a side note I am wheeling in the morning, going doorless with a high of 40 degrees and plan to play in some snow! Pics to fallow!
