Rides for stock TJ w/31" tires

[flagators]

Thanks everyone for the advice.  I am saving up for an OME lift, but I may have to do a BB in the mean time.  I have the BFG 31" AT tires.  How are they about cleaning themselves?

Not as good as a mud terrain tire, but not too shabby from what I've seen of the people that have them.  Kinda a good all around tire.  So-So off road, real good on road and have a decently long tread life.

Has to be one of my favorite tires made. Great tread life and good offroad. I have owned 4 sets and loved all of them. Good on rocks. Mud... eh. But if you spens most of the time on road then it makes sense.

But when has offroading ever made sense? Most of us daily drive our 4x4s and we make them handle worse on road just to spend a little time each year offroad.

But for a good tire, I would go with a Copper STT. Aggressive design, but still very quiet and its suppose to have good tread life.

Ultimate setup for a DD would be to have 2 sets of tires and rims. One for driving, one for wheelin. I hope to have a cheap DD soon so I can get the Jeep off the road for awhile. But if I could do it I would have 2 sets ready to go.

I rode Tellico last  year on 31" MTRs and a 2.5" BB on my WJ.  I had a great time but yes it is much more difficult to pick lines.  I would not try 31s without a BB, full skids and sliders/rock rails.

Also, Tellico is WAYYYYY more rutted and washed out than it was 1 year ago.  Believe that.

I can vouch for that. My 33s and 3 inch lifted ass was dragging on everything.

Sorry to bring back this old thread.  I finally got a 2.5" lift and disconnects.  I still have 31s so hopefully I should be set to go on some of the rides.  The only thing left is to install the recovery points in the back.  I can't wait to go on some rides and meet some of you guys.

your just $20-$30 away form having rear tow points.  Couple of hooks and some grade 8 bolts and a drill and you done.
