How much did they cost ?
You probaby don't want to know what I paid for the tires and rims---but lets just say it was an AWESOME deal.
I have all new sheetmetal for the ZJ that I had planned on putting on and painting pre-ejs, but I doubt it's going to happen that fast. Probably within the month the jeep will look a lot different.

ya, it'll still be ZJ hood and fenders, but I think I'm going to put some skins on the back, and give it a new color. All black is soooo yesterday
On a side note, I did the cap/rotor/plugs/wires today and found some interesting things under the hood. Cylinder 4 wasn't hooked up to the distributer so I was running on 7 cylinders, and the valve on top of the head (pvc valve?) had come out of it's home and was just sitting there wide open. I thought about taking the head cover off and cleaning and adjusting stuff, but then reason took over as I realized I had no clue what to do once I took it off. So I just changed the oil and stuck the valve back in

Hey Cody. You gonna do something about the sharp edges on your fenders (I use the term loosely) before you cut the s#!t out of those nice new tires? I've got a hammer you can borrow.

How wide are you bulge to bulge? Give us a side shot.
i'm 78" now outside to outside--thats 3" narrower than before
braden, I dont know what elses could be left for me to hammer down....I was looking in there but I can't see any sharp edges or any more stuff I can cut out/hammer down without really hackin into the engine compartment (which may be my direction down the road)
side shot
It'll be interesting to see how much if any stability I lost by losing 3" of width. The tires/rims are way heavier so I'm hoping that will make up for a little of it.
