Going from a 32.7 to a 34.4 is a 5% increase. Most speedos are about 3% under from the factory. I have a tazer ordered, but I don't plan to change my wheel size at all. It's just not enough of an increase for me to bother

Well Hell y’all. I guess my karma is in balance. This has been a long time coming, and a pretty intense ordeal.
So like a lot of you guys I ordered five of these tires. Four arrived in no time. Then the wait began. Then the frustration began. Then the phone calls and emails. Spoke to “Frank” and “Bob” in Mumbai and Bangladesh about my predicament, all to no avail.
Walmart out of the kindness of their heart said “not on us” and gave me $25 towards a future purchase. FedEx said we need a written and signed letter from the shipper saying that they aren’t also going to file a claim for the missing tire. Well fuck me at this point. Nobody wants to take responsibility for my missing tire and it’s up to me to pull teeth and get a confession. How convenient.
So I call SimpleTire, whom we all bought these from, through Walmart. They’re on it. But about twelve days go by after they said someone would get back in touch with me immediately. I call them back and get a very nice lady on the phone who seemed to have taken a genuine interest in my situation. Big props to Cassie.?
So Bob escalates my case to Frank who says the most Walmart can do is refund the price of one tire. I say that’s not an acceptable resolution because I have a claim with FedEx, which will get canceled if I accept a refund. So in the middle of all of this Walmart sends me another email with a boldened hyperlink that says “didn’t receive your order”, I click it and it immediately refunds my tire amount!? ?
Feel like I’m screwed at this point. Anyway, another week goes by having heard nothing back from the company that we purchased these from.

Long story short, FedEx shows up this afternoon with this.

Now I feel like I need to order a fifth wheel so I can do a five tire rotation since this is the last Jeep I’ll ever own.?
And it’s a Gobi Mojave Gladiator.? Some of you will get it.

I gotta recenter steering wheel. Stability Control error

Ok Kenda krew. I want minimal poke on my sport. I was under the impression +25 offset was the way to go. I plan on running the ride right 2.5 diesel lift, stock lower control arms, Clayton uppers. Now I'm hearing that they will rub since I'm not on wide axles. Have you non wide axle guys run these +25 wheels ?

I haven't had a chance to do a pattern check, but 33psi (cold) looks and acts good for me.

Thank you. I’ve been running them at 44 and thought it was no bueno.

35-36 for me

Finally got them installed on Friday. I’m actually very impressed with this tire. Looks really good.

32 around town. 36 on road trips…Cold pressures. If I drove a lot, I’d keep them at 36 to help with wear. I only drive about 5 miles a week however. Unless I go to the beach or something.

Hey all, Is anyone getting excessive shimmy/bounce with these tires? At over 55mph, I get a shimmy/bounce while in a turn or if I hit a unsmooth bit of road. The only thing I have changed in the suspension area is new front springs, Iron Rock Offroad spacers and Billstein shocks. This is on a Sport S Max Tow. I was going to first have the balance checked, but thought I would ask everyone else's experience too.

No shimmy here
Did you mount them on oem rims? (7.5)

They were OEM Mojave takeoffs. So yeah 7.5. Running at 36psi.

I’m at 36 too. 2.5 lift. 9” rims.
I’ve only put maybe 2k miles on them. Work truck gets the miles.
I’m surprised I don’t have issues. Half my weights fell off.
