Thanks guys! Pretty pumped about it, I've been waiting for jeep for awhile hahhahaha kidding. Had to keep this one around, she's awesome y'all will meet her on some wheeling trips.

As far as the Jeep goes, those tires can't stay, to big and really impractical for DD, I kind of starting to like the wheels. But they don't make MTRs in anything larger than 35s in a 15 inch wheel, so I'm struggling to figure out what to do. I'd have to go to 37s I a 17 which are crazy expensive. The 35s are ideal just not sure how small they'd look. Thoughts, opinions etc..

How far is your daily drive? That does have a pretty big lift on it. 35's are going to look small now because you've been looking at it sitting on 38's. How much wheeling do plan on doing? What's you wheeling style? Do you hit the crazy stuff? In most groups their is always that small group of guys that will try something the rest won't. Do you fit in that category?

I know you really want the MTR's, but I kind of agree with Sal, they're going to look REALLY small on that vehicle if you don't cut down the lift a bit.

You can keep those wheels and get Toyo MT's in a 37" tire. They're a solid tire and about the same price as the 37" MTRs but then you don't have to buy new wheels. With the size tire you're in, there's not many inexpensive options...

If these aren't sold yet.... might be a good interim solution. Can probably recoup most of the cost by selling your current set too.

hate to say it but grabbing some adapters and some JK moabs for a set of 35x17s would look amazing- I mean it is a rubi after all. I do dig those wheels, but I feel like you could offset the cost of the new wheel/tire set up by selling those.

does it have a full size spare? im pretty sure you could find a set of 4.5" RE springs for cheap or someone willing to swap. great thing about having a TJ/LJ the swap meet section of most jeep websites is flooded with stuff. great rig man, I LOVE LJRs. def on my radar as my next jeep
