Trail ready has a 16" beadlock. I would check for your pattern. They are really lightweight.

Stauns are OK, but they do have a tendency to wear holes in out area due to the mud that creeps into the beads.

I run my TR's 3-5 psi everywhere I go.

Upset your girlfriend?
Good luck when she becomes your wife if she already is running your life and your money. ;D
Key word...GIRLFRIEND. ;)

Well, she's "technically" got girlfriend status.  But when you've been dating and living with a girl for 6 years I think she falls into the wife category al-la common-law style.  We'll see how long this current status can be maintained....

She's got a VW golf right now, but every now and again it comes up that she wants to test drive an automatic jeep when she starts looking for a new vehicle.  And it varies time to time but she either seems to want it stock, or crazy-arse modded up (like drive over Joel's modded.... not likely) and pink of all colours  ::) .  So yet again, we'll see how that plays out.

At this point she's stopped asking how much I've spent.  Now it's moved on to "well, your bills are all paid up.  As long as you can buy groceries..."

I can't wait for the tires to get here, and then I'm going to be marking off the days until the fenders or lift gets here so I can fit them.  Either/or works for me.
