Re: tire recommendations?
The factory door sticker says 29 pounds on my '02 TJ that came with
30x9.5x15 tires from the factory. When I switched to 31's, I lowered the
pressure to 28 pounds. Seems perfect.

Re: tire recommendations?
That could be one... not exactly what I was thinking, but then again...
Apparently I was mistaken regarding the weight of a TJ. I've thought they
were significantly lighter than most SUVs on the road and that's what I was
comparing against when I said "light". Don't get me wrong... I don't think
the TJ is an SUV, but there's really no other "class" of vehicle to compare
it against in my book.
Sorry to get this thread off on a different direction...

Re: tire recommendations?
Some of them are, but by the time put a six cylinder, winch and
tires on it you're well above two tons:
