Thatās what I do. The funny part is Iāve been outdoors my whole life. Own a pile of high end sleeping bags, packs, tents from singles to 6 people and enough gear to take a platoon with me (wife kids and grandchildren). When I go by myself itās this setup with a foam pad, a sleeping bag...
And for what it's worth, the rule of thumb is that the wider the tire the more rolling resistance you'll get from it and that decreases mileage. Of course there are a lot of factors that affect MPG but all things being equal a heavier wider tire is a MPG robber.
I ran 34" Wildpeaks on an Overland with just a leveling kit and I can tell you that while there was no rubbing or any issues running desert trails and mild rock crawling (and I had a lot of off-road fun with that setup) you'll never see 8th gear again unless you are going downhill with a...
My factory ones on the new Mojave were 33" AT3 but I didn't get to run them long. The AT4s have been out for a bit and I put quite a few miles on everything from rocky desert to Utah snow on them on my '22 that I traded in for the Mojave X and they were flawless. The short period of time that...
Now this is strictly based on your Jeep pic in your avatar. It seems like you are a desert rat like me :)
If so I have been running Wildpeak A/T all over Arizona, Utah and Nevada with excellent results. They are also VERY well behaved and quiet on the road/highway and excellent in rain and...
Not looking to pick on you but this is an endemic problem on this board. "Generic" questions get launched and lots of replies and recommendations are given base on super limited actual information, which quite frankly makes the exchange almost useless without context.
Saying "built to go...
Pulled the trigger today on the Falken Wildpeak A/T 4W 35x11.5x17 today! Lord I love those tires! I wish Jeep would offer them as an option on the Rubicon and Mojave. I rode my last set of 34" (same tire) on my 22 Overland through a lot of hard desert miles and rocks and never got ONE cut and...
Pulled the trigger on the Falken Wildpeak A/T 4W 35x11.5x17 today for my otherwise stock '26 Mojave X and they are as nice as my old 34s on my last gladiator. Ride on pavement is great and I'm headed to WY to go off-road and camping this weekend so they'll be nicely broken in by the time I get...
So you all realize this is a ridiculous subject right? Without going into details of which Jeep model year, trim model, specifics of exactly what you own and what kind of driving and condition of roads, what tires youāre running and at what pressure, what modifications youāve made, etc...
Lord I love it when people make ridiculous statements with NOTHING to back them up!!!

Whatās a JT rear ābobā?!?!?!?! I drove from NC TO AZ in my old ā22 Overland towing a grossly overweight 5x8 uhail trailer doing north of 80 MPH quite a bit. Zero issues!
Every Jeep Iāve seen wend since...
GM: American Car manufacturer, though you would not know it by diving into their suppliers and where their plants are for most vehicles. But, the Colorado is assembled in the USA. About 50% of their parts are USA/Canada made.
Stellantis: European based owners of Jeep. But Jeep Is still an...
I stepped out of the Jeep for a minute and mom asked "Where's daddy?"
Smartest dog I've ever owned and I had a full protection trained Czech Border Patrol GS that I considered a human.
Ps. this one has sent more people to the ER than the GS :CWL:
If interested please send me a PM.
If you bought a Sport or any of the Gladiator trims that come with the Light Truck street tires (like the Shara or Overland) this is an EASY upgrade to make your Gladiator to make it look better and perform 1000% better offload with a real AT tire the behaves...
That would be a hell if an adventure for sure. I donāt know that I will have the time for such a long driving trip up there but it on my bucket list. Got you PM and I definitely appreciate the offer. Things go way smoother with the help of a local.
