    Tire recommendations

    My TJ wears Toyo Open Country Mud Terrain tires. I would not recommend them for a general driving type of tire. They are loud and wear out fairly fast. And they are very heavy. Only reason I have them is that this particular tire is the only one I've not been able to rock break - most of my...
