Just a note... If you want to do the Infinity REF 6.75 in the rear, use the SSV pods. The tweeter sticks out too much for the Mabett pods. It was cheaper to return the Infinity's and buy the Hertz, than to return the Mabett and buy the SSV for me. Line the inside of the pod with sound...
Oils are mostly a personal preference thing these days, like tires. Some might work better for some people and others might not…. As long as you’re talking comparable product, like both being full synthetic.
I run the Liqui Moly Molygen in my Jeep and have now for many years. It’s a great oil...
The Firestone Destination AT2 is a good road based AT, as is the Cooper AT3 4S. Both available in the P285/70R17. I used to manage a fleet and the Firestones were one of the tires we chose to run. No experience with the Continentals.
So I would say... make sure you get 3PMSF rated, nothing...
We wanted cloth seats and high package. So OBX or WT. We liked the interior colors of the OBX better. When optioned out, the OBX and WT are virtually identical.
Their website only shows an E tire in that size... But I'm super sensitive to load ratings and can usually tell immediately if I'm driving a LR-E. Some people it may not bother at all.
The 285/70R17 size is the logical upgrade. There are some great tires in that size too. The Falken AT3W in P285/70R17 would be my choice. No need for an LT tire with your desired use... Great tire, quiet, durable and look great. And can handle all of the off-road you throw at it.
That's a really good looking wheel. I'm particular about specific fitments, not a wheels designed for multiple applications...
So, will these also be hub-centric for the Bronco?
Yes, just like the stock Squatch Goodyears are only rated to 35psi. The AT3W is a bit heavy, but it's an excellent tire.
It says that on the tire, but not their spec sheet or website. It's truly bizarre.
Another failure to document an install process... Something I'm really good at. :(
Added some door sill guards... I noticed a few light scuff marks on the door sill and wanted to keep that from getting torn up, so a quick visit to Amazon and found these...
Kenda's are hard to come by here in AZ, where did you get them? I am a big fan of the Kenda Klever RT KR601, but fear the level of support I might get if I needed warranty, etc. The shop reached out to Kenda and they referred us to a distributor in California that had no interest in shipping...
There is a TFL podcast with 2 Goodyear Tire representatives and they clarify the terminology. I can try to find the link...
This is the summary: "Goodyear wants the consumer to understand their Territory MT tire is a Maximum Traction tire not a Mud Terrain tire."
The MT in Goodyears world actually stands for Maximum Traction, not Mud Terrain like the rest of us are used to. They are more of a hybrid All Terrain with the small tread voids and the tread sipes for wet traction, etc. Add a very soft rubber compound, more like a true MT and you don't get...
I can't put a complaint on the KO2's really. It was a good tire for me. While I lean towards the AT3W, I would run the KO2's again. Those are probably the top 2 AT's available right now. Then the Toyo AT3 and Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT are just behind them. All are 3PMSF tires and that's...
I have convinced myself that I need MT's on my crawler... Not sure I can continue to back that up to myself. ;) The Rugged Terrains are certainly more civilized...
I went from KO2's to the Falken AT3W on my personal truck and it's a noticeable step up for me. I tend to run C load or D load...
Tires can be a very personal thing... Quiet to one is loud to another, etc. I do tires at my hobby shop (medium volume Jeep shop) and have 2 mud terrain tires that I like. The Falken Wildpeak MT is my go-to tire for people that are really sensitive to vibrations or radial tire pulls, etc...
Well, the lower frequencies are still sent to the 4" without bass blockers and that can cause them to distort and even pop at higher volumes. It's both protection and sound quality. I went with 600hz, but some have had success with the 300hz. Depending on the volume you listen at, you might...
I've seen these... If legit, amazing buy. Only 2 sets left.
