Yes, I like the classic looks of the mag wheels. Really like the old Crager SS wheels actually the best in a 14 or 15 inch size. Figured with the dark accents of the Willys, these would work well. And yes, it is ultimately my decision, however I thought it would be fun to see other's opinions on...

For my application with the close to stock 265/70R17 tires, it should work good.

Will do Josh. Thanks!

Thanks PJ! Already have ditch lights installed and don't want to put anything on the roof as far as lights go. It still has to fit in my garage, and it is kinda tight now!

Well, I bought new Falken Wildpeak AT4/W tires about a week ago for my Firecracker Red Willys Gladiator. These tires are awesome! However, I felt there was just too much black with the solid black wheels and tires. So, I was going to find a set of Rubicon take off wheels, but most came with...

Thanks John, I think...LOL!!! You do realize that I am an impressionable young dude at almost 70 and if you keep talking like that, I may have to ask them what amount of money they might need to do a trade for that red Rubicon! I will have to think about this....Hmmmm. See what you did!!! LOL!!!

UPDATE!!! They have ordered a new windshield for my Jeep. The service advisor said there is a slight chance that when removing it, it actually could crack. So, the new windshield is on order and should be at the dealership on the 20th. Then hopefully soon after that I can get it scheduled back...

This gets interesting as time goes on. The one shop close by I had do my first oil change at 1210 miles a few days ago. They were going to take pictures of the windshield and have Chrysler advise them how to proceed. Then when my truck was done with the oil change, one of the service advisors...

Thanks Jay. I hope that they can use the same windshield and make it right!

I bet the robot was not set up or adjusted correctly to make sure the windshield was installed correctly. Funny thing though, this just started recently and I am wondering if somehow the windshield has moved since I have had it? You would think not, but the noise from the front of the windshield...

Thanks, and appreciate the crossed fingers! I would too but my fingers are a little sore due to all the rain here in Tennessee lately and the arthritis stuff! The wet weather does actually affect us old dudes...LOL!

Thanks Dan. I will mention to them about checking the frame as well for being bent. And I haven't even had the freedom panels off yet! I did not have a problem with my other 2 Gladiators so this is new to me as well. I wonder if they changed the design due to the integrated radio antenna?

Notice a funny sound like water bubbling when the Gladiator was driving down the road after it rained. Noticed today that my windshield is coming out of the frame on the top driver's side! Possibly related? Going to dealer tomorrow to get my first oil change and have them look into this. Anyone...

Thanks for the info! I was trying to stay with a close to stock tire size to help maintain good gas mileage and still have an aggressive enough tire for bad weather road conditions. Plus, if I do ever go off road, I should have good grip there as well with the AT4/W tires. And if I tow anything...

That would be fine. Thanks for asking!

Can't say enough good things about the staff and management at the store in Lebanon, Tennessee. Great team for sure! They have earned my business!!!

I had read that that the AT4/W Falken Wildpeaks were a bit heavier than the AT3/W's. I can't locate specs right now on the 265/70R17 AT3/W's, but I believe the ones I have at size 265/70R17 115T are about 46 pounds. The Firestone Destination MT2 tires that came on my Willys Gladiator were...

Thanks Steven! I have had the Falken Wildpeak AT3/W tires in the past and for the small amount of snow we did get here, the tires gripped the road very well. I imagine you get some serious snow and ice up in your area, so it is good to know the Falkens are working good for you! I imagine the...

I agree. I am sure 33, 35, or 37 inch tall Falken AT4/W tires would be more, but this is the size I wanted (about 32" tall tires) to stay close to stock and I think they will work out great! Thanks Andrew! Phil

I have a new Willys Gladiator and I was not real thrilled about the Mud Terrian tires because most all of my driving will be on the road. If any off road adventurers, it will be easy trails and dry dirt roads probably. Plus being a older guy on a fixed income, I wanted better gas mileage if...
