I m between the 39.5x16.5x15 Pitbull Rockers or 18x39x15 boggers, but I like the toughness of the bias ply and the ability to modify the tread pattern with a tire groover  :)

I would run rubber pneumatic tires, in the 38 - 40" range.
if we were smart with our money we wouldn't own Jeeps.

Fixed.

I did a Google search for "hot trannies" but nothing came up about oil coolers  :o

Worrying too much about mpg with a Jeep is similar to worrying about your sister's virginity. An ok thing to be concerned about but...

awwww, i seriously like Toyos. i was on a run with the highriders and my jeep flat outperformed others that were bigger and better with Boggers, Iroks (wear out quickly btw) in mud, and steep gravelly, sandy straight ups. After that run, i will swear by Toyo's :flipoff2:

iroks did wear quickly. but they'll bet your Toyos in the mud, and they are great in the snow.... two things that Alberta has a lot of.......... 'all around' tire, probably not, but out here, they aren't a bad choice.
