When I bought the truck at 42,000 miles the dealer had to take the stock Wrangler HPs off because they were so bald and they put on some Wrangler SR-As for me.. Anyone have any experience with the Wrangler SR-As?

They have a different tread than the HPs.

i have the cooper zeons 305-55-20
I like them, a little louder and a roughter then stock but the wider stance makes them look a bit more aggressive esp from the rear. They handle great.

Do you have any pictures of them on your truck? I take it they fit fine on the stock rims?

Also, where are you buying them? Discounttire carries the Coopers in 275/60/20 but not the 305/55/20 or 305/50/20 that I'd like.

you would probably have to have them order them for you in that size. also i think cheapbeater wanted a cheap set of tires. you could pm him

I really have no complaints about my stock HP's. I have a 2wd and have had no problems @ 70mph in the rain. I even got around good in the recent snow/ice storm.
I will be replacing them when needed with BFG Long Trail T/A's. Had them on my 01 F150 and they did great in all weather.
