abs i think its on some axles not something you can add at any reasonable price, but why would any one want that crap, more accidents with it than without, you just DON'T stop.My 03 tj doesn't have it. This website shows you pics of different tires you might like.

You can also go to Cdn Tire and buy there (LT) light truck tires or an offroading store like national4wd they have a website/Canadian and have stores in all provinces with a toll free phone number

Ciao il Signore, il benvenuto? lei te stesso piace fino ad ora???

Welcome to the SITE !!! Welcome to Canada..

All the above are great suggestions. Also something to look for in a tire

~Ensure they all match, meaning to have all 4 tires the same size, same model. Better all around for your jeep.
~ Find a company that offers warranty, repairs, trade ins, balance ~ which will help you in the long run. A company like Kal Tire, Tire Warehouse, Fountain Tire, A1 Tire, Canadian Tire. For example.. Kal Tire offers life time repairs, rotation and balance on their tires.

I cant give you a direct answer! there is too many to list and too many to answer.

ABS can be installed on your Jeep, its gonna cost you a fortune and in my opinion not worth it. Believe me you will survive the Canadian Winter .. we all have.

Congrats and Good Luck !!

"CrazyWJ242" I didn't miss the : I left it off so I wouldn't get all their advertisement on the post, Try national4wd you get a 2 liner of advertisements where a person only has to copy and paste and find it doesn't work so he looks closely and see's something little error and adds it.

I agree completely, plus they seem to last forever.
