TJ 4" with 31's
I need to see some pictures of a TJ with a 4" lift and 31's. I just bought 35's and i have to travel the highway and dont wanna burn the tires gears and gas because i only have a dana 35 with 3.73's. Funds are a bit low so the BF 33 x 10.50 arent cheap. I have alot of 31 options but dont wanna look too small

well im not selling the 35's and I have a built 8.8 sitting in the garage. I am taking a job that requires alot of travel, but an increase in pay so theres my logic. I needed to know what you guys thought about 31's, and how they would look with the 4" lift

If i took a job long travel and better pay, just toss on 30s or whatever around that size you get a deal on or find comfortable. 31s won't look the greatest on a 4" but wont look very bad.
Who cares how it looks, you know they're only DD tires. From experience i used Futura Dakota tires through Pepboys for DD for awhile, worth every penny if you ask me. Roughly $85 a tire(31s) with a 35k or 50k mi warranty, been awhile so cant remember. Otherwise i hear good things bout Coopers

Maybe I am missing something here but do you take it on the trail every weekend? You could sacrifice 4x4 for a while and just get the rear re geared for probably less than a new set of 31s. Then get the front done when you get the money and not have a set of 31s laying around.
