Looks real good. I think you're gonna like those tires, I just put a set of 265/65/17 Terra Grapplers on my Grand Cherokee after I lifted it and they do surprisingly well in the mud considering how quiet and well mannered they are on pavement...

yeah I was pretty stoked when I found them for a reasonable price. I do love the road manners, can't wait to take em off road and especially in the snow. Winter is when I do most of my driving.

Been through a few south Ga. and central Fl. deluges of rain as well, the heavy siping really makes them stick to the wet pavement like velcro. And you are right about the price, I got my set of 4 for $590 which included mounting and balancing. Can't beat it.

I love the FCIIs on my truck, but they were a bit overkill for my daily driver Grand Cherokee, not to mention the best price I could find on them was over $800 before mounting and balancing!!!

That looks really nice. I can't say that I'm a fan of that contraption on the bed, but other than that, I like everything else going on with the rig, nice work!
