How good are 40's for daily driving?

Local Discount Tire - I have since heard they are unavailable….

Thanks. Hoping @JTRUBI can chime in as he is a fellow Canuck. Tire pricing sucks around here.

Its like the stripper with 750 cc implants who looks in the mirror, sees a flat chested teen ager, and decides she's switching them out for 1200s.

I had a 750cc and upgraded to a 1200cc.

Not sure if it’s been mentioned, but you won’t be able to carry a spare in the stock location. Not serious, but something to consider.

I got mine through one of my customers tire shops. It’s called Tire Outlet in Scarborough, Ontario.

I had 37’s previously and put that in the stock location as my doughnut spare!

Esp if you are on 38 or 39, you could use a 37" spare under the bed.

I have a 2020 Gladiator Rubicon on an Evo 4.5 with 38s. I drive about 1800 miles a month with weekly 200 mile round trips for work. I don't have any issue. The only grip i would say is that the Patagonia tires wear unevenly at times and I do hear that a bit when driving. I had a sunrider top but had to take that off because the wind noise was pretty loud at 80mph. let me know if you need any more help.

I’m not trying to be rude, but at that point, why buy a JT over a JL? Genuine curiosity.

Tow capacity, I like the look of the JT (especially with bigger tires), already have a sweet 2dr JK, don’t have to leave the tire in the bed if I do haul something, I don’t like 4 dr Jeep SUV’s, chicks dig it, etc, etc, etc,

let’s face it, most anything with 40’s on it is more of a toy. I just like to play with my toys on daily basis.

Haha. Cool. I just figured you didn’t tow much if you put 40s on it.

Not a lot, primarily the crappie boat.
