You can but choices are limited. I believe Chris has 16s for his DuratracsCan you not get a class c tire for a 16 inch rim? Do you think the consensus is I should have 15 inch rims if I'm going to invest in new tires? Thanks

I went back and looked and it had a 3 inch spacer lift and new shocks that were put in shortly before he sold it. So based on that I think I should be able to put a 33 inch class C tire on it and be ok . Thanks again for your feedback .Can you not get a class c tire for a 16 inch rim?

There are 4 new shocks but don't see a name on them so wondering if they are new stock? Thanks for your help. I've got lots to learn not only about heels but vehicles in general. .Your profile states different shocks. Is that 4 different shocks?. If you decide to get new shocks I would recommend Rancho RS5000X. I have a 4" lift and 33s(BFG KO2s) and do 30 miles one way all week. Smooth riding.
Good morning. I wanted to ask is it unsafe to drive on those treadwrights? I plan on getting new tires but want to drive it in the meantime. What's the worst that could happen? Are all treadwrights retreads? Thanks!Treadwright is a Remold/Retread tire. I wouldn't drive at highway speed for a long distance.
Take Care.
With 3" spacer lift the shocks should not be stock. That would not be a good combination. There should be some numbers stamped on the shock body at least.There are 4 new shocks but don't see a name on them so wondering if they are new stock? Thanks for your help.

Hey, wanted to let you know after putting back tires to front the shaking got a bit better. Then I deflated all to 26 psi and it was even better. THEN I took the back and sides off leaving the top on and it improved a ton! Why do you think that is??Tire balance is very important on the TJ. Or should I say, perfect balance. Sounds like you have a typical poor balance job, not the dreaded "death wobble." Take them in and make sure you stress the importance of balancing them perfectly.
Most shops over inflate the tires as well. Try running them at around 26 psi and see how they do.

Hi Chris, you were the next on my list to thank for helping me. It could be the soft sides. The other thing that stopped was my drivers door was shaking a lot, which my boyfriend pointed out the pins are shot and there is play in them. But once the sides and back came off that shaking stopped probably due to the reduction in the overall vehicle shaking . I see there's lots I need to educate myself on before making any major decisions. But I'm glad it's better on a really nice day today with 0 chance of rain!!! Have a great weekend !! Oh, and I do have a bunch of other questions for you , but will message you another time . ThanksLess wind resistance? Maybe some of that shaking you were getting was from the soft top sides. Sometimes the wind can make them flap a bit, which might be mistake for shaking.
They sell replacement bushings for the door hinges, which should help with doors shaking:Hi Chris, you were the next on my list to thank for helping me. It could be the soft sides.

Thanks for the info but in reading the reviews it states these don't work in stock doors?? I think mine are stock. Any other suggestions on were to get them? Also the tops of my pins are red to match the jeep top. Wonder if I can get them to match or if I will need to paint? If I could get brass ones like you shared id be fine with that .They sell replacement bushings for the door hinges, which should help with doors shaking:

Well, after reading the reviews on Amazon, it seems the majority of those reviewing agree that those do not work on stock hinges. Try this website:They do indeed work on the stock doors. Amazon Prime also has them as well: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003YM6RDA/?tag=wranglerorg-20
