And thus goes the resale value for some 33x10.50 BFG ATKO's and AR 767 rockcrawler rims.

Both purchased under the assumption that they'd be less wear on the Jeep and still enough 33's to get me over the rocks.

A stearing box or two, a few different trackbars, bushing for swaybar links, and... enough aggrevation at times to make me want to give it all up.. and it's all tires. But you'd have to beat me over the head with them because despite all Blaine's recommendations.. I couldn't believe something so simple as tires would cause the problems...

Too bad they float because boat anchors are about all those tires are good for now.

I saved a couple of bucks on tires, and ended up spending it all in money fixing everythign else. I bought the tires as part of my lift - and got a "good deal on them". Thinking that tire balance wasn't much of deal. Past experience told me nothing of that sort of thing... and no one on the JU technical grounds evermentions how important it is.
But I learned a couple of lessons. Value of friends to be sure.
