2004 Limited - MOAB's, Firestone Destination A/T's, Stock Suspension.

[scull20]

Got everything mounted today...5 Firestone Destination A/T's 245/70/16 on MOAB's from a 2003 Rubicon. They have their fair share of rock rash and scratches but you cant really tell unless up close. I do have some rubbing at the fog light door, nothing horrible, I'll take care of it after the spring semester is over. I had them take the TPS valves out of my old wheels and put them in the new ones, after some hesitation they did it with no problem...just needed new seals. Overall I am very happy with the look. Keep an eye out in the for sale section for my old wheels . Hope ya like it.

EDIT: I'd like to add that the Jeep seems much more stable now. Before the new tires and wheels I would get jostled around in my seat when going over speed bump sized bumps at low speeds, this seems to have been eliminated with the new tires an wheels. Prolly due to the bigger/better quality tires and wider stance.

P.S. While I was waiting at the tire shop, some guy was getting an oil change done. One of the the mechanics came in and goes, "Looks like you're gonna need an air filter for your Grand Cherokee, its gonna be $37.50 additional." I felt like beating the piss out of him, thirty seven fifty to change a friggin air filter...I know they mark up on stuff but thats absurd.

Looks great! I really like those MOABS wheels. I'm running the Firestone ATs on 235/70r16, I have about 12K on them right now and its great, really like them.

Man those wheels look perfect on your Jeep.

Think you could get a close up of the tread?

I'll snap a shot of the spare up close tomorrow, It's a bit dark out right now.
The tread is not as aggressive as the general grabbers...and no where near as aggressive as a mud tire...but certainly better than the SR-A's that where on there. I figured them to be the happy medium between aggressive look and on road performance. I do my fair share of driving back and forth to school (115ish each way) so I didn't want to take any major hits in gas mileage.

And ty for the compliment

That looks really nice....I'd like to get a set of those MOAB's on ours, but all my money seems to be going into the JK here lately.

Looks great! I have them on my Libby (255/70/16's) and the wife's Escape (235/70/16's) and we love them.

The tires and rims look really good. I always liked Moabs and those Destination A/T's are lightyears ahead of the stockers..
