what tires and what size should I run on the cherokee in my sig. I just got it and it had 37 creepys on it but were sold before I got it I bought some 15x10 rims that came with some worn out 36 tsls so going to put them on it for now but am open to what I get for it. So what do you guys recomend for it?
 
37's push too far on chromo'd 30/8.25, I would go for 35-36's, creepys rock... TSLs are good, Mud Terrains if it'll see alot of street driving. Good Luck.
 
thats what I was thinking but this wont be on the road at all so trying to figure out what would be the best tire size / brand to run
 
If you got the money, Creepies. Hands down

Call Rides of Conover.
 
id run some 36 irocs they are lighter than most tires but i love TSL's havent ran the creepies before but ive had a few sets of irocs and love them!
 
I picked up some radial tsls today that are 36 14.50 15s 2 have half and 2 have 3/4 tread left just trying to decide if I want to run them or sell them got then for a good price so did not want to wait and miss out on them
 
IMO creepies are no good unless they're sticky. the tread pattern is too tight for my liking. IROKs are a great tire and work well on the east coast. they're lighter than most Swamper tires and I like the scoops. TSLs are tried and true and will work well. They will wear better than the IROK so you can have plenty of seasons on them but they are heavier.

personally I'd run the 36s for a while and see how they go for you. if they're looking tired (no pun intended), sipe them.

Since it is going to be primarily off-road, I would sell the radial TSL's. The side walls will develop eggs, seen it many times.

I'd go with the tried and true bias 36" TSL or 36-37" IROC.

I must have skipped over the radial part. bias ply FTW
 
I'm going to sell the radials and get something else just going to run the wore out tsls for now
 
Groove the worn out tsl's and run them until you can get what you want. Personally I'd go with bias tsl's or boggers. Everyone say what you want, I love boggers in the rocks.
 
May endup with some 35 14.50 15 boggers on trade anyone else run them and how did you like them?
 
I ran 33x14 boggers on my old XJ. Groove them and they'll do great. I loved them. Papa Jon runs the 35x14.50 boggers on his 4runner.
This is how mine were grooved. Boggers are pretty stiff but once you groove them they soften right up. The only downside I found to them is when youre on the skinny pedal and spinning, with the amount of grip that the lugs on the boggers provide the sudden grip send some serious shock loads through the drivetrain. Really hard on axleshafts.
