ya, Spencer is logging it, in the FCA system so there's a record of it, I wasn't even 25 miles away when it happened. I'll chase after @JeepCares next week.
I'm almost 2000 miles from home, so I'm gonna drive it and let them do what they want to do. worst case scenario is they rip out. I almost wonder if adding these bigger tires will lessen the airflow in there, if not oh well, they're so damn thin, that they wont hurt anything.

Christopher Reyka
Sergeant Christopher Reyka was shot and killed while checking on two suspicious vehicles in a convenience store parking lot at approximately 1:20 am on August 10, 2007.
He had parked next to the two vehicles and was checking their license plates.
As he exited his patrol car, an occupant of one of the vehicles also exited the car and opened fire, striking Sergeant Reyka several times. Some witnesses state the suspect stood over Reyka and kept shooting him on the ground. Customers of the store immediately called 911 to report the shooting.
Sergeant Reyka was transported to a local hospital where he succumbed to his wounds a short time later.
The suspect fled the scene and remains at large.
This HERO was one of the first BSO Deputies I met when I transferred to Fort Lauderdale in 2007, and this happened 2 blocks from where I lived at the time. I,ve put one of these on every vehicle I've owned since.

Kendrick Castillo
Kendrick Castillo, 18, was killed on May 7, 2019 in a shooting at STEM School Highlands Ranch, where he was just days away from finishing high school. His classmates said Castillo rushed the suspected shooter, helping disarm him and saving lives in the process.
Castillo was the only fatality in the assault allegedly by two students near Denver. Eight other pupils were injured before the assailants were arrested. The attack took place just 8km (5 miles) from Columbine High School, the site of one of the country's most notorious shootings 20 years ago.
Hundreds of Jeep drivers lined Colorado Boulevard to pay tribute to Castillo.
Jeep groups from across the state escorted Castillo’s hearse and his family to a Highlands Ranch church where a celebration of life was held for the teen. More than 800 said they planned to attend.
Proceeds being donated of course:

@JP1 - Lately I have been reading a lot of bad reviews about those Black Rhino armory wheels - Please keep us posted if they rust or bend too easily... They sure do look nice!

I'm leaning towards getting beadlocks now the Black Rhino Garrison wheels...
