Man, that's not all you put them on. I think you have the market cornered on moab rims around here.

Ha Ha ... 29 & counting! I'll take almost anything and I don't pay very much for them. They're pretty easy to restore. I splurged though for a set for my '89 XJ. I took them in for powder coating and they should be back on Tuesday. A new set of Load Range C Duratracs will be going on them. I have a set of Load Range E Goodyear MT/R's on it now and I like them. They're more ridged but aren't as bad as a lot of people say.
It just wouldn't be your jeep without moabs and duratracs.

I guess I am weird as I like my original grizzly wheels that cam on the sahara...
You’re not alone. I like those wheels a lot and always keep my eyes open for them. Guess I’ll have to look into buying a set thats been refinished.

Love the ride, except my flairs rub a little off road. The ride is perfect otherwise and i don't want to change lift or flairs. Is installing extended bump stops a good solution?

Yes, you may not need much, but you don’t want your tires rubbing the fender or flares. If they are rubbing the flares they might be rubbing the fenders and that could damage the tire or fender.
You may not air down, but an off-road tire guy told me that the problem with E-load tires on a Jeep, is when people air down, there is a layer in the 10-ply sidewalls that cracks and has to be repaired or a new tire. Not saying you have a bad tire, just saying that people should know this so they can research it.

That color combo and wheel set + the tires- wooooh, nice! Really like it as is.

I like the looks of your tires, but I have E rated tires now and hate the harsh ride. I’m probably going to have to sell my 16 inch Moab’s and get some 15 inch wheels so i can get some C rated tires.

I guess it’s what you like or get used to. I driven other Jeeps and have never felt such a harsh ride. My buddies who have ridden with me agree. I have OME shocks and they may be part of the issue.
