    Picked up a '15 Sr5 V6 in Graphite this past week. Sold my '76 CJ5 to make room in the garage and free up some funds. This weekl will be new wheels and tires. Going up to 18" Worx Beast and General Grabbers A/T 255/60/18R. Will also do a front end level for now. I had a '13 TSS package as a company truck but since have moved on to bigger and better things. So I needed another tow vehicle for the boat. Below is the old and the new. Also, is there a market for stock wheels and tires out there? What should I ask for $?

    Welcome to TW !
    Nice truck !
    Doing mods on it will be akin to wiping your ass with a Hoola-Hoop , Never Ending !!
    Best thing to do is Never look at this site again ....
    I sold my stock wheels n tires with 450 miles on them ... Got $800 , and consider myself lucky. !
    Plasti dipping the wheels would have been a good second choice , but I know I wouldn't have been satisfied for too long ...
    I sometimes wish I would have never bought this truck .... It's way too much fun
    I could have allot of home improvements completed by now cept for the truck ...
    My wife is jealous .... I show the truck more affection and attention than her now ... Probably the way it should be ... In my guys mind anyway !!
    I Love my truck .... I like my wife ! Hahahahaha ! Truth be told ...
    I used to have a 79 CJ5 , till the insurance industry made it impossible to own , back in the roll-over days ... Bought that New for $6100 !! Ordered from factory ...Great vehicle ... Lots of fun and very reliable .
