Technically Speaking....

I just dropped 450 bucks on some new BFG A/Ts and the only way I can describe the feeling when I look at my Jeep is like christmas morning when I was 10 years old. Handling and gas mileage are notably better and the road noise is amazingly low for such a scary looking tread. I've gotten numerous compliments in the mere 2 days they've been on. Really beefed up my stocker. Good thing I found this forum, else I would have bought tires I could actually afford.

Cool, my suspension is stock too and I've been wanting to see pictures of how those tires look in that size!

Wow, those look great! Nice Jeep.

The only thing I don't like about moving from 225's to 235's is that it the bigger tires make any rear sag even more obvious.

wow itasor you're too fast! You saw my plates! Please dont steal my identity and ruin my life now! =D And yeah the slant of the parking lot and the tire size makes the sag obvious. Helper springs may be in my future.

Haha, I just randomly checked back for you pictures 1 minute after you posted them.

Mine's sagging too...thinking about just buying the replacement stock springs and getting them put on instead of helper springs. They're like $60 each, which isn't terrible.
