+1 for Discount Tire - There is much aftermarket value their. Free rotations and balance for the life of the tires. Do you really want to rotate 110lbs+ tire/wheel combos or have someone do it for $20/wheel after the fact? The bigger meats take more TLC to keep that investment in tact.

I'm gonna suggest another direction.
Get an AEV 2.5 RT Dualsport lift or other quality lift that couples with a matched shock set. For the money you get rid of that spongy Rubicon setup and are good to go. One and done.
How many people truly have "shock fade" that need adjustable...
I missed the part of what we use ours for... My group runs CBs with some Baofengs mixed in for the low entry point. I am adding GMRS Midland MXT275 to my Baofengs as my closer friends I wheel with are headed in that direction as well. FRS being in the same frequency set makes it easier for the...
"Hangover Run" = Snow was deep and folks had lots of issues adjusting to it.
Smittybilt Winch - Love the wireless remote instant satisfaction it has.
Voodoo Rope - I have successfully swapped over to soft shackles and Voodoo kinetic rope makes for less of a jar on the vehicle when tugging...
Kind of an apples/oranges thing.
I had a Rancho short arm kit with coils on my JKUR and it performed very well. The parts were well engineered. Support was strong. Rancho has been around for years and will not be soon fading into the sunset. Directions for install were perfect.

I have been using this RIGID tool box for years. Funny thing, not for tools. I keep radios and light spare items in it. Cool thing is, it doubles as a step... Makes for easy access to the bed as well.
I can put alot of weight on it, it is waterproof and easy to handle. For a couple times a...
I have the MOREs and my wife loves them. Initially it was pretty painful on the wallet, but I only ordered two. In the last 8 months there is only 1 instance in which I should have taken them off. Your potential contact patch is down to just a few inches unless you are sliding on the whole...
I went 5.13s with 37s and occasionally towing a 3,500lbs camper. If you run at the top of your speed limits, it gets revvy and fuel economy drops fast.
With the consistent weight in the back, my personal vote for you is 5.13s.
Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT with Teraflex Nomads
The Patagonia's were starting to make some noise at 10k miles, so I started searching for treads. I was really close to landing on STT Pros or Mickey Thompson Baja Boss MTs, but stumbled on Baja Boss ATs. 3 peak rating and dropping these onto...
I am running a 37x12.50r17 Patagonia with a Quadratec Recon wheel. The spare is stuffed up under the bed in the OEM location. There is about 3/4 of an inch of clearance between the tire and the track bar with the tire deflated to 16lbs.
The tire has been set down on stuff a few times, with no...
I chose the Access Cover Literider originally to go with Rebel Offroad Explorer racks. I ended up with a Tuwa rack I am pretty happy with. The tonneau only rolls about 50%, but I am cool with that. It stays dry and dirt free in the bed. You will be hard pressed to find one dust free...
As I lust for new tires, and SEMA settles into the sunset... What tires and interesting sizes have you seen this year?
Nitto has the
Recon Grapplers in lack luster sizes - Neat looking tire, but only listed in a 33x12 on their website?
Ridge Grappler in 38x12.5r17 - A neat size for the...
So many factors here...
What is your DTI ratio? Err... budget - You can drop $0-600 per wheel
What look do you want?
Do you even wheel bro? Err.. Is it a mall, commuter, beach, crawler, overloader, sand or snow rig?
Are you gonna beat the snot out of them or wanna keep em shiny?
I chose a...
