I had the jeep overnight, had to take it in told them to fix an oil of some kind leak and align it. it was supposed to alredy been inspected and they didnt do a very good job at all. Has had me pissed and I was telling them no deal but now I dont think I can get out of it since its been 4 days since I signed papers even though I only had it over night on 1st day

Whatever you save in gas will never, ever, ever offset the cost of another set of wheels and tires. Even if they're 400 marketplace takeoffs.

There is no saving gas, to the point that makes anything worthwhile, on anything you already own.

Going full hypermile retard with a fascia, skirts, pizza cutters, and never going over 18% throttle or 62 mph would maybe get you a 10% increase.

I have a fairly decent set of off road type tires on the gladiator. its currently at shop getting some last minute work done before i actually own it.

was wondering if I picked up a set of wheels and tires that look like normal truck tires, would that be too bad ? I just thought I would run those during the day in the city. save my aggressive tires for when I need them .
If you're not racking up 15-20k miles a year some of your tires will age out before you wear them out. Personally, I won't run tires older than 6 years old. They lose their resiliency, and become risky in the rain.
