    Here is a comparison of what to expect from going up from
    215/65r17 to 225/65r17

    I had my trailhawk fitted for 235/65r17s and noticed major clipping on fenders when wheel is turned 3/4s. I have Daystar lift and 1.25" spacers.

    I think I'll go with the 225/65r17s

    I'm at NTB and can still get some. They are thining out, and the warehouses are running slim as well. Tirerack.com may still have a few. NTB, Merchants, Tire Kingdom, Big O are our companies that could hopefully get you taken care of.

    My case working is telling my dealer I can keep the old tires without buying them back. I'll save them for the wife's Patriot.

    Still waiting to hear back from JeepWave...they had to send it further up the food chain for further review...wondering if I should threaten legal action? Any thoughts?

    My dealer is telling me they can't order the KO2's and no one in town has them! As well as Jeep Wave says they are waiting for available tires from my Dealer! I am losing faith!

    Well I'm trying to do that but the Jeep Wave is dragging their feet and I'm getting no reply. When I call I get a voicemail. And to make matters worse no one in town nor the dealer can get the KO2's. I have sent a email to BFG but from what I am hearing the tires in that size are no longer in production!

    Well just got done chating with a Jeep Wave Rep and was told the dealer responded to their request and told them I should get the Wrangler SR-A tires! Frustrated does not even begin to cover it!

    Oh, that's bad. I guess I better be extra careful with mine if they aren't making those anymore!
