Hiking with four boots

9jeeps · Feb 24, 2022

Just got my new boots today and headed back up to the mountains next week to check'em out on the road trip
and take the same - make the trail as I go.
Above pic is stock Destination AT's which I had no issues with other than I can't find the AT's in the 255 65 17.
AT2's are the replacement but I know the Wrangler AT's from my other Jeep and seem to be a great all around tire for my needs.
I have a 1" lift in the front to level out vehicle as seen above with stock tires. I wanted to move up a size.
Looks great , plenty of clearance and fills wheel well a little better than stock size.
Pouring outside. I'll post pics hopefully tomorrow for anyone interested in a modest lift and tire size change - look.

Consider Firestone Destination AT 235/70XL-17 tires for slightly more ground clearance and stronger sidewalls.
Your forest looks like my Tree Farm only a lot better.
Be sure to cut the saplings really close to the ground so they don't puncture your tire treads.
My Tree Farm is just West of Wisp, let me know if you want to take a test drive.
Still too much snow on my North facing hill but it will melt, soon I hope.
Looks like you are just East of the Yok?

That's actually along Shenandoah River cliffs in Front Royal, Virginia. I considered the 235 70's and 245 70s but like the look of a tad more width on the stock rims.

Check out Peter's Mill Run, it is close by.
The CORE off road club I belong to goes there at least once a year.
My TH went airborne coming out of a mudhole.

Thanks for the heads up.
