I asked. I received. And now I thank you.

My thoughts were on the same course as yours, albeit without the knowledge of the LE2's treading issues.

The RT43's it will be. I'll let ya know how they fare.

Thanks again.

I needed tires for my '00. Stock except for an injector upgrade. I am older now and my off-roading days are over but it does not mean I still won't own a Jeep. I went with some Cooper Discovery HT's in a 225 75 15. Have a treadware rating of 520. Paid $530 out the door for 5 tires. With new valve stems and nitrogen instead of air in the tires. Got a $50 rebate and sold my old 5 matching Wrangler GSA's for $80. Have a full size spare which I plan on putting into the rotation. I am happy with my purchase.
