Thanks to all that made this event happen.  Had fun being initiated in east coast wheeling and practicing vehicle recovery.

Excellent time at the 4x4 101 again!
Kudos to Eric and whomever was driving the built TJ for preventing body damage to my JK.  Never having driven something this heavy in mud, I was not really ready for the trail conditions, but the guys in group 2 were awesome at explaining what I needed to do.

Now....once these stock tires are dead, is there a size ratio that would be better for this kind of terrain that would not kill the JK as a daily driver?
I had 285/75 R16 Cooper Discoverer STTs on my previous Jeep and don't remember having that much trouble in mud.  Or is it just that the JKU is so big and heavy?

Anyway, thanks for once again putting this event on.

street tires versus mud tires!

wouldn't have considered BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain T/A tires to be street tires. 


I'll just wait til these are dead and go back to the Coopers.

By normal people standards they wouldn't be considered a street tire.   But in a 32 inch  compared to some pitbull rockers or Goodyear MTR's that are bigger its just less aggressive.   Mindless runs some 42 inch ones from interco.   Some statements are relative to the community your in.
