Re: Tires and Wheels - 95 Cherokee
 

I'm saying when we're driving my daughter's 86
CJ7, people not only wave, they get out of the way
- when we're in my Cherokee, they ignore us...

That's why we're thinking of putting little CJ
decals on the side for all the times I've had to
go rescue her cause her CJ wouldn't start (it's a
driving project rig, so far more project than
driving...)

Just can't get no respect!

Re: Tires and Wheels - 95 Cherokee
 

Hmmm - one of the reasons I love this Cherokee sooooo much and want to keep it
forever is we bought it in Germany when we were stationed there (American
spec, though) and it's been on the Autobahn with the speedo pegged. Wild
ride!

But I can't do that here... :(

PS - thanks for the pics - those wheels do look nice...

Re: Tires and Wheels - 95 Cherokee
 

Talking to myself again here -

So no one seems to think the 16" wheels will work
- I should stick with 15s.

OK - thanks for all the feed back and
suggestions, I'll look around and see what I can
find.

Oh, yeah - what about the rim width thing - what
happens if you put a tire recommended for 6-7"
rims on an 8" rim? Does it blow up or what?
